“THE IMAGE OF KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR and THE VISION of DANIEL”
Saints, I want to get straight to the WORD of GOD. GOD showed King Nebuchadnezzar a very powerful prophetic dream. This king sought counsel with all his astrologers, psychics and magicians, but they still could not interpret the dream. But GOD raised up Prophet Daniel to interpret the dream of the king. Thank GOD for HIS TRUE PROPHETS in the earth! Saints, there is something else that FATHER wants to reveal to you about this image. There is a SPIRITUAL NUGGET that FATHER desires for us to see. Please take a look at DANIEL 2:31-33:
[32]. ‘this image HEAD was of fine gold, his Breast and his Arms of SILVER, his BELLY and his THIGHS of BRASS,
[33]. ‘his LEGS of IRON, his FEET part of IRON and part of CLAY.’
FATHER revealed Nebuchadnezzar dream to Daniel, so that he can interpret this dream to Nebuchadnezzar.
But here is the interpretation of these two verses: Daniel 2:38-40:
[38]. ‘Thou art this HEAD of GOLD.’
Nebuchadnezzar is the head of Babylon. Let’s go to verse 39:
[39]. ‘And after these shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
In other word, GOD told Nebuchadnezzar that there will arise other kingdoms after you. Take a look at verse 40;
[40]. ‘And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as IRON; forasmuch as IRON breaketh in pieces and subdueth all; and as IRON that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.’
GOD showed Nebuchadnezzar earthly kingdoms that will reign upon the earth; but GOD showed the Prophet Daniel something that was very profound and very spiritual. Please take a look at DANIEL 7:1-7; 17-19; pay very close attention to verses 4-7:
[4]. ‘The FIRST was like a LION, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.’
[5]. ‘And behold another beast, a second, like to a BEAR, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.’
[6]. ‘After this I beheld, and lo another, like a LEOPARD, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.’
[7]. ‘After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beast that were before it; and it had ten horns.’
Nebuchadnezzar had a prophetic dream about the earthly kingdoms of the world; and Daniel the Prophet of GOD had a night vision about demonic spirits that ruled over these earthly kingdoms. This is what you need to know about this great truth:
1st Kingdom=Babylon
2nd Kingdom=Medes and Persians
3rd Kingdom=Grecian Empire
4th Kingdom=Roman Empire
These are the kingdoms that GOD revealed to Nebuchadnezzar; and here are the beasts that GOD revealed to Daniel:
1st Beast=Shachal
2nd Beast=Belan
3rd Beast=Pohal
4th Beast=Leviathan
These four beast, four demonic spirits were influencing the kings of these earthly kingdoms. Some of this information is in my book, THE BEAST FROM THE SEA. However, we are not done, let us combine the beasts with these kingdoms:
1st Kingdom=Babylon=1st Beast [Shachal].
2nd Kingdom=Medes and Persians=2nd Beast [Belan].
3rd Kingdom=Grecian Empire=3rd Beast [Pohal].
4th Kingdom=Roman Empire=4th Beast [Leviathan]
Just as these beasts are connected to these earthly kingdoms, these beasts are known for attacking certain body parts; thus giving us the revelation on why they attack our extremities/bodies. This demonic attack is both natural and spiritual. GOD revealed to Daniel the demonic spirits that were operating in his day; and these same demons are operating in our day, 2014. Each one of these demonic spirits are attached to body parts; and these body parts are recorded in DANIEL 2:32, 33. Once you see this connection, your eyes will come open to FATHERS TRUTH.
1st Body Part=HEAD.
2nd Body Part=BREAST and ARMS.
3rd Body Part=BELLY and THIGHS.
4th Body Part=LEGS and FEET.
Saints, this is what the LORD revealed to me; and it is time to connect these demonic beasts with these body parts; these demons try to attach themselves to people body parts:
[1]. HEAD=SHACHAL
[2]. BREAST and ARMS=BELAN
[3]. BELLY and THIGHS=POHAL
[4]. LEGS and FEET= LEVIATHAN
Saints, do you see this truth for yourself? These demons want to attach themselves to us, so that we will not fulfill the purpose and plan that FATHER has called us to do for HIS KINGDOM. If these demons attach themselves to the saints, then we will not be able to move forward in the things of GOD. There is more to come with this teaching. GROW IN GRACE AND IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS CHRIST.
