The Plagues of the Nations

Duration:1 hr 37 mins 7 secs

The Plagues of the Nations

LEVITICUS 26:25

     25   And I will bring a sword upon you (sword means war), that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

EXODUS 12:11-13

     11   And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover. (At the time of the last plague (which was death) they were eating the lamb (the lamb represents Christ), we are also eating the word which is Christ in this third exodus – “take the book and eat it John” Revelation 10:9)

     12   For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.

     13   And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

Notice - Egypt was one nation, and there was one chosen people of God that came out of that one nation, but today, the end time bride is out of every nation – so the plagues are affecting all the nations at this time because this is the third Exodus.

The Plagues of the Nations

This Covid 19 virus that has swept the entire world in just a few short months – we want to study into this a little to see what the scriptures (in the light of the message of the hour) tell us of these things concerning this end time age so that we can be informed correctly by the word because it is the word of God that brings comfort to us in times of trouble – the Comforter is the spirit of truth, and the Comforter is the Lord Himself.

JOHN 14:16-20

     16   And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

     17   Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

     18     ¶ I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

     19   Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

     20   At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

Read opening verse again…

LEVITICUS 26:25

     25   And I will bring a sword upon you (wars among the nations), that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant (that will execute the vengeance of the covenant. When Russia drops an atomic bomb on the Vatican City, then that will be the vengeance of God. When God sends his word to a generation, then that is his covenant to that generation – When the cloud came down on mount sunset in 1963, that was connected to the symbol of the rainbow over the head of Christ in Revelation 10:1 (REVELATION 10:1   ¶ And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven (The angel of the covenant – Christ Himself – the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout – a message), clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire (Pillars of fire is judgement because He is the judge of all the earth with the Judges wig on because this is the time of the vengeance of our God:), and so the rainbow upon his head is the covenant that is associated with the headship of the word, it is an agreement between God and man so that when you receive the word that God sends by the messenger for this age, then the covenant is in effect for you, the token is applied, he has marked you with the inkhorn in your forehead by the seal of God which is the revelation of Jesus Christ to you personally for this age – but the ones who quarrel against the word of the covenant, then the vengeance of the wigged judge is executed upon them): and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

Pestilence = infectious diseases

PSALM 27:5 (this is the rapture chapter of the bible relating directly to this age)

     5   For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

Of course the rock that he is referring to here is the revelation of the word of this hour – and the secret of His tabernacle is the mystery of the bride revealed, she is His dwelling place.

PSALM 91:1-10

     1     ¶ He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

     2   I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in (Washing my hands will I trust - NO) him will I trust. (The secret is to put your hope in the Lord, it’s good to wash your hands but don’t put your trust in those things because you will offend the Lord if you trust in those things more that you trust in the Lord as your refuge and fortress)

     3   Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

     4   He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

     5   Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

     6   Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

     7   A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

     8   Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

     9     ¶ Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

     10   There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

REVELATION 18:1-5

     1     ¶ And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

     2   And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

     3   For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

     4   And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

     5   For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

***The great sin of this age is not all the evil and the pornography and the murders and drugs and human trafficking and the violence as it was also the days of Noah. The great sin of this age was the rejection of the greatest truth of the word of God that has ever been made available to any age or generation – all of the manifestation of these other things are the result of the rejection of the greatest truth that God has sent to any age – so the rejection of the greatest truth also results in the greatest manifestation of sin of that of any other age.

Second opening scripture…

EXODUS 12:11-13

     11   And thus shall ye eat it; with your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste: it is the LORD'S passover.

     12   For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.

     13   And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

The plagues of Egypt began with the waters in the river Nile being turned into blood, so this was a plague affected the environment but also directly affected the people.

Then there was the plague of Frogs, then the Lice or gnats, then came the Flies, then the Livestock - all the cattle of Egypt died, then Boils broke out on the people, then the Hail mingled with fire that destroyed the crops and trees, then the Locusts, then Darkness (a type of this Laodicean age), and then what followed the darkness was the Death of the firstborn.

We notice that in the first Exodus the token was required because of the last plague that would come upon all the people regardless of whether they were Jews or gentile, up to that point by being in Goshen was their protection, there protection was based on a geographical location, but at the time of the last plague, the requirement to be protected against the plague was the display of the blood on their door post and lintel, what protected you before would not work against this last plague – so your protection was to be associated with the blood of the lamb that had to be on display and that was the token that God recognised. Remember that back then it was the display of the chemistry of the blood on their house, but now in this third Exodus, it is not the display of the chemistry of the blood but the display of the life of the blood that we receive by the revelation of the word for this hour under this 3rd Exodus prophet’s message – remember that the people of God in the first Exodus were under a prophet’s message for that hour – those who obeyed that message were protected from the plague.

The Blood in this hour is not the chemistry of real blood, but we are given access to the spirit of the blood of Christ through the word of this hour because the voice of the blood is the word.

THE.INDICTMENT_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-19 SUNDAY_ 63-0707M

101     That's the reason that you don't see things happening in the churches. They confess that they believe the Blood, but they reject the very plan to get to the Blood; the Word. See?

You cannot claim the blood of Christ and reject Christ the word at the same time. What gives us access to the blood is by our acceptance of the word.

“the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life”.

God’s word is life because it carries the spirit of life which is the spirit of God himself, and so the spirit of the word (which is the spirit of the truth) when you receive it and it is made clear to you by the Holy Ghost, the that spirit of the truth of the word becomes one with your spirit and that is what unites you and God together.

****So you first receive the word of God into the womb of your mind by knowledge by the way of hearing it or reading it, and then that knowledge which is that word now in spirit form in your mind (because thoughts are spirit) is taken by the Holy Spirit and made spirit form as a faith in your heart which is the soul, and then your spirit and the truth of the word have become one, and that is eternal life.

JOHN 5:24

     24   Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

***So in the first Exodus you needed the token to protect you from the last plague which is death – your geographical location wouldn’t help you anymore, and so it is also in this third Exodus, you will also need the token to protect you from the last plague which we know is spiritual death.

Remember - Obedience to Moses’ message of the token brought protection at that time of judgement at the first Exodus, and so obedience to this Exodus prophet of this hour must also give you the same privilege of protection at this time of judgement. Full obedience to the word entitles you to the Token.

***The Token is the evidence that the price of the fair has been paid, and so the fair was paid by Jesus Christ at Calvary, but what connects you to that token of what has been paid is the voice that has come from the chemistry of the blood that was shed back then - that voice has sounded this hour – “in the days of the VOICE”. When you receive the spirit of the word of the voice, then that is the token applied to the door and lintel of your heart because that faith that you believe will be displayed in the way you live your life in some way.

WHO.IS.GOD_ CLEVELAND.OH TUESDAY_ 50-0815

E-8   Grant, Lord, that something will be said tonight, or done, that will cause the wayward to turn to Christ. For we believe, and feel pressed in the Spirit, that great judgments are upon these lands [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] last days. Plagues, disease germs already bred up to be scattered throughout the nations. (***Remember brother Branham’s wife sister Meda, she had that cist on her left ovary that laid dormant for years but was not activated to do its evil work until she transgressed by being disrespectful to the prophet of God – these plagues and germs are already in the land, but many times they lay dormant until the transgression of the people gets to a certain level and then that plague is activated upon the people) No doctor know even how to take a hold of it. O God, we'll have to believe in Divine healing then. When nations are breeding germs together, to burst them in bombs, and millions die in hours over it.

But oh, we're so thankful that when the destroying Angel went forth, You said, "Touch not none that has the Seal of the Father upon their forehead (Your forehead is your revelation). They are Mine." Oh, we're so glad tonight, to be under the Blood, safely protected; as Israel in the days of old, putting the blood upon the lintel of the door, and upon the door post, sign of the cross. When the death angel was sweeping the land, the dark wings bowed down, but when he seen the blood, It rose again, and "I will pass over you."

THE.FIRST.SEAL_ JEFF.IN MONDAY_ 63-0318

126-3 {61}   Now, notice: But it's to be revealed when the Lamb leaves His intercessory place from the Father. (Now, that's Revelation 5). Now, He takes the Book of Seals, the Book of Seals or a Book sealed with Seals, breaks them and shows them (look) at the end of the age now, after the intercessory is over; the church ages has done finished up. He come in the first age, the Ephesian Age, revealed, sent the messenger. Notice what happened as we go along.

Here's the plan of it: The first thing happens, there is a--a--an announcement in the heavens first. What happened? A Seal is opened. What is that? A mystery is unfolded. See? And when a mystery unfolds, then a trumpet sounds. It declares a war. Or a plague falls, and a church age opened. See? What is the war part? The angel of the Church catches the mystery of God, not fully yet revealed, but when he does, he catches this mystery of God, and then he goes forth to the people (after the mystery has been given to him), goes forth to the people. What does he do out there? He begins to proclaim that message, and what does it start? A war, a spiritual war.

126-5 {65}   And then God takes His messenger with the elect of that age, and lays them away asleep, and then He drops a plague upon them who rejected it: a temporary judgment. And then, after that is over, then he goes on, and they denominate, and bring in denominations, and start off with that man's work like of--of Wesley and all the rest of them, and then it gets all in a scrapple again; and then another mystery comes forth. Then what happens? Another messenger arrives on earth for a church age. See?

Then when he arrives, he--the--the trumpet sounds. He declares war. See? And then what happens? Finally then he's caught away. And then when he's laid away, then plague falls destroys them. Spiritual death hits the church and she's gone, that group. Then He goes on to another one.

THE.UNVEILING.OF.GOD_ JEFF.IN V-9 N-1 SUNDAY_ 64-0614M

157     They spiritually die now. This is a spiritual veil. See? That was a natural veil. This is spiritual veil. See? They keep walking right on in behind there, you can tell them. "Oh, I know! I know that, but I..." See, go ahead, it's all right, it only speaks... You remember, the last plague in Egypt was death, before the exodus. The last plague on earth is spiritual death, before the exodus. Then they'll be cremated and turned back to the dust, and the righteous will walk out upon their ashes. But the last thing is spiritual death, rejecting the Word.

ACCEPTING.GOD'S.PROVIDED.WAY.AT.THE.END.TIME_ PHOENIX.AZ TUESDAY_ 63-0115

213     Now, some of them said, "Well, now, if the plague falls, we'll just go in the hospital. If the plague--if the plague happens to fall, you know what we'll do? We'll go get Dr. Jones. He'll know how to take care of it." It didn't work. Yet, they were smart. "Well, if the plague falls, we'll just go down beneath the ground, in a cave, and shut the door down." That won't do it one bit of good. "We'll stay in the house, and put a mask over our face, and--and put some disinfect on it." Didn't do a bit of good.

214   God made a provided way. Yes. And it was (what?) the blood. God provided it, as simple as it seemed, to take the blood of a lamb and sprinkle the door. Yet, God said that was His way, and He honored it. "All out from under the blood died, the firstborn."

II CHRONICLES 7:12-14

     12     ¶ And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.

     13   If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;

     14   If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
