Revelations 19:11-16 11 Next, I saw heaven opened, and there before me was a white horse. Sitting on it was the one called Faithful and True, and it is in righteousness that he passes judgment and goes to battle. 12 His eyes were like a fiery flame, and on his head were many royal crowns. And he had a name written which no one knew but himself. 13 He was wearing a robe that had been soaked in blood, and the name by which he is called is, “THE WORD OF GOD.” 14 The armies of heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. 15 And out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down nations — “He will rule them with a staff of iron.” It is he who treads the winepress from which flows the wine of the furious rage of Adonai, God of heaven’s armies. 16 And on his robe and on his thigh he has a name written:
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS
THE NUMBER 7 - GOD'S DIVINE NUMBER
The number 7 is God's very own number and is associated with Divine completion and perfection. It becomes apparent to most who read the Scriptures that the number 7 is the most significant number in all of the Scriptures. Therefore, it stands to reason there must be some extremely important patterns that are associated with the number 7. The entire Bible is based upon the things that Yahweh has said to His servants, the prophets. "Thus saith the Lord of Hosts", is a phrase that reveals to us that God Almighty has indeed given us the very words that have come directly from His mouth. This phrase is found exactly 70 (7 x 10) times in the King James Bible.
The Bible is a book of prophecy. The word "prophecy" is found 21 (7 x 3) times in the Scriptures. The 21st occurrence of this word reveals that we should be very cautious about how we handle the Word of Yahweh:
Revelation 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
The Bible itself states that the Word of God is a book of parables. The word "parable" is found 49 times. The word "parable" is found 7 times in the book of Numbers. All of them are found in chapters 23 and 24, and all of them are spoken by Balaam, with the first time being in verse 7. In Psalm 78 we are told that Yahweh speaks His Word by means of the parable, and we are also told that all the words of Yeshua are in parable form:
Matthew 13:34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them.
The Holy Spirit is represented elsewhere in the Scriptures as being the "breath" of God. God tells us in Ezekiel 37:6 that He will "put the breath in you, and ye shall live". In Genesis 2:7 Yahweh did this with Adam. This is the first place we find the word "breath", and notice that it is in verse 7. The word "breath" is found 42 times. God took the number of man (6) and multiplied it by the number for God (7) (6 x 7= 42).
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God Himself. There is a variation of this in the Scriptures called "the Spirit of Christ". The Spirit of Christ and the Spirit of God are the same. There is no difference between them. That is why these two phrases together are found exactly 28 (7 x 4) times in the Scriptures.
In the two listings of the lineage of Jesus Christ, the manifestation 7 is displayed. The account given for us in Matthew, chapter one, lists 42 (6 x 7) generations from Abraham. The account given for us in Luke, chapter three, lists 77 generations from God Who created Adam, the first "son of God", to Yeshua, the "true Son of God". This title of "Son of God", in its various forms is found 49 (7 x 7) times in the New Testament. It is found only one time in the Old Testament, recorded in Daniel 3:25. As we saw earlier, Jesus' title of "Christ" is found 555 times in the Bible. Since the Bible declares that those who follow Christ will be joint heirs with Him (Romans 8:17), it is logical that this lineage has a very special purpose. You will, therefore, find the word "church" in the KJV exactly 77 times! We discovered the phrase, "house of God", is found 84 (7 x 12) times in the Old Testament. When we look at the history books of the Old Testament, Genesis through Esther, we find the phrase, "house of God", 77 times.
There is a total of 28 words in the above inscriptions. This number is a product of 7 for perfection, and 4 for the Gospels. When Pilate was asked to change the words that were written, Pilate responded with a 7-word proclamation: "What I have written I have written" (John 19:22).
There are those who will not believe, even when faced with these amazing facts. There is no way that these numerical patterns could have crept in by chance or human design. They were placed there by an Almighty Yahweh; a God Who wanted all of mankind to know His special secrets. These are revealed to us in this most special of all books. You may deny some of my conclusions, but you cannot deny that these patterns exist.
If in the course of my study I had encountered one or two of these patterns, I might not have thought too much about them. But, as you can clearly see, the evidence is overwhelming and is growing day by day. There has not been a single time when I dedicated myself, my time, and my study to the Lord, relying on His inspiration, that I have not been shown more of His signature in the King James Bible. It is my hope that all who discover these wonderful truths will also come to revere this most special of all books the way I have.
The new year 5777 as apposed to the Gregorian calendar is 2016-- Rosh Hashanah, we look forward to Yeshua ruling and reigning over all. The earth becoming Heaven and us as rulers over many. Selah, Shema let us listen and consider this teaching that has been spoken in our hearing--Roar, Judah roar!
