When we talk about partnership with the Holy Spirit, we
understand that that includes communication with the Holy Spirit. As we looked
at last week, in defense of the Holy Spirit we should be more of a silent
partner and allow, like Mary, the Holy Spirit to lead the way. But how does the
Holy Spirit communicate with us? Is there only one way, or are there multiple
ways? Of course that is a trick question as we know that there are multiple
ways for the Holy Spirit to communicate with us. In understanding the pouring
out of the Holy Spirit, we have this idea of visions. Receiving visions, seeing
visions, and understanding what visions entail is important for us to learn. Many
people don’t ever go beyond a knowledge that the Holy Spirit is available
because they have never been taught how the Holy Spirit communicates with us. One
problem that I still marvel over is the lack of understanding in the Greek text.
There are far too many denominations which have been established on nothing
more than poor Latin translations. Dreams and visions are given to those that the
Holy Spirit is poured out on, not necessarily just Jews or Christians. Our
ability to learn this form of communication will allow us to have a greater
role in our partnership with the Holy Spirit. Remember that we discussed how
humans typically make plans and then invite the Holy Spirit to partake? But our
response should be the opposite. The great news for us today is that if we ask,
the Holy Spirit will teach us about different types of visions.
The prophet Joel told us that in the last days the Holy
Spirit would be poured out on all flesh (bodies), and when that happens people
will prophesy, dream dreams, and see visions. Is this something that is taking
place in our lives? It should be if we are saved and spirit filled. The pouring
out is irrespective of age, gender, race, or religion. The young, the old, the
slaves, both male and female, the Holy Spirit is poured out on all flesh. This
also notes that it is not by our own will, but by the will of Kurious Theos/Yahweh
Elohim.

To see is to
discern or perceive with the eyes or mind or by experience. This is something
unique to the individual. A vision is not the same for everyone because not
everyone will perceive it the same way, one may “see” the message of the
vision, one may “perceive” it in their mind, and another may “experience” or
feel the message. A vision is communicated individually, but several people may
prophesy the same message. On the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit was
poured out, Peter explained what was going on.

Notice these two words used here, horao and horasis. It
can be understood as “one will see a sight”, “perceive a perception”, or “visualize
a vision”. It sounds redundant but this type of redundant language helps us
understand that there is something that we will experientially know and then we
will prophesy. It is discerning an inspired appearance. We all should have
visions, this is not for certain people over others, it is for everyone; young,
old, boy, girl, slave, or free. Visions for prophetic understanding are for
everyone.
Daniel is a great example of someone who receives visions
and prophetic messages. We may not always understand visions, but Hebraic
prophecies are like that. One usually cannot discern prophecy until certain
events have passed. It is not something we understand when looking too far
ahead. We can speculate, but usually prophecies are very literal. Hebraic
prophecy is usually understood when most or all events have taken place. Jesus
for example told people that when they saw Jerusalem surrounded to get out and
head for the hills. He said this thirty-four years before it took place. The
city was surrounded in 66 CE by the Idumeans when the fascist Zealots tried to
gain support from the people. The Romans already occupied the city and simply
waited for the civil war to wind down before they seized the city and drove out
the Jews. Jesus’ words were literal. Jesus’ words were a warning. The people
who survived either left before the surrounding of the city or escaped the city
when it was surrounded.
Elohim/Theos gave the four youths understanding, intelligence,
academics, wisdom, and perception in visions and dreams.

They were so smart in fact that the King found them ten
times smarter than the magicians and astrologers in his realm. Isn’t that how
each and every one of us should be, ten times smarter than the non-spirit
filled people around us? We can and should expect, like Daniel, that the Holy
Spirit will enlighten us in all areas of life.
Dan 2:27-30 Daniel answered the king, The [mysterious]
secret which the king has demanded neither the wise men, enchanters, magicians,
nor astrologers can show the king, 28 But there is a God in heaven Who reveals
secrets, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what it is that shall be
in the latter days (at the end of days). Your dream and the visions in your
head upon your bed are these: 29 As for you, O king, as you were lying upon
your bed thoughts came into your mind about what should come to pass hereafter,
and He Who reveals secrets was making known to you what shall come to pass. 30
But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have
more than anyone else living, but in order that the interpretation may be made
known to the king and that you may know the thoughts of your heart and mind. ……
Dan
2:45 Just as you saw that the Stone was cut out of the mountain without hands
and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the
gold, the great God has made known to the king what shall come to pass
hereafter. The dream is certain and the interpretation of it is sure. AMP

Who reveals the secrets? Yahweh Elohim made known to
Nebuchadnezzar something that was to occur in the later days. This is the
statue of the man made with various materials. This is a vision for the latter
times. We understand it now, but as Daniel states this dream and vision was not
made known to him for his benefit but for latter times. The dream is certain
and the interpretation is sure. Why was this vision given to the king of
Babylon? Why was this king so important that he received this vision that
explains future kingdoms and empires? One would think that someone who was a
holy devout Jew would have a dream and vision that explains future kingdoms
concerning Israel, but instead this very important revelation was given to a
non-Jew and interpreted by a Jew. By Nebuchadnezzar receiving the vision and
asking people for understanding, he made known the vision to many people. All
the people who heard about this vision then heard about the interpretation. If
someone less important received this vision it may never have been recorded for
us to learn from.
Now if it wasn’t already amazing that a non-Jew had a dream
and vision that we still discuss today, the entire court of Babylon saw a
vision of the son of Elohim/Theos.

Once again, this vision was not given to the Jews. The
three friends of Daniel were thrown in the fire with the intent to murder them.
But instead the entire court saw the son of God in the fire. This vision was
not a witness to any Israelites, it was a witness to the non-Jews and it
attested to the power of Elohim/Theos. This vision needed no interpretation as
they all knew throwing three into the fire, yet seeing four walking around the
fire was a miracle. If we read the prayers of the three that were thrown into
the fire which the Masorete’s took out, we will see some amazing testimony. We
can read the rest of this story in the Septuagint in chapter three. http://ecmarsh.com/lxx/Daniel/index.htm
Daniel has a vision of the future Persian king, Cyrus, and
of the future Grecian king, Alexander the Great. There used to be an old
expression that after Malachi and before Matthew there were 400 silent years.
That is not true in the least. Daniel has very detailed prophecies of those
years. There were never any silent years, they were foretold by Daniel and came
to pass.
Dan 8:1-2 IN THE third year of the reign of King Belshazzar
a vision appeared to me, Daniel, after the one that appeared to me at the
first. 2 And I saw in the vision and it seemed that I was at Shushan the palace
or fortress [in Susa, the capital of Persia], which is in the province of Elam,
and I saw in the vision and I was by the river of Ulai. AMP
Here again is a vision that at the time seemed confusing to
understand, but once Cyrus and then Alexander the Great conquered the region,
the vision becomes understandable. Gabriel gives Daniel the understanding. But
let’s keep in mind that it was very very needful for these things to come to
pass. Let’s read.
Dan 8:13-19 Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another
holy one said to the one that spoke, For how long is the vision concerning the
continual offering, the transgression that makes desolate, and the giving over
of both the sanctuary and the host [of the people] to be trampled underfoot?
[Luke 21:24.] 14 And he said to him and to me, For 2,300 evenings and mornings;
then the sanctuary shall be cleansed and restored. 15 When I, even I, Daniel,
had seen the vision, I sought to understand it; then behold, there stood before
me one [Gabriel] with the appearance of a man. 16 And I heard a man's voice
between the banks of the [river] Ulai which called and said, Gabriel, make this
man [Daniel] understand the vision. [Dan 9:21; Luke 1:19,26.] 17 So he came
near where I stood, and when he came, I was frightened and fell on my face. But
he said to me, Understand, O son of man, for the [fulfillment of the] vision
belongs to [events that shall occur in] the time of the end. 18 Now as he
[Gabriel] was speaking with me, I fell stunned and in deep unconsciousness with
my face to the ground; but he touched me and set me upright [where I had
stood]. 19 And he said, Behold, I will make you know what will be in the latter
time of the indignation [of God upon the ungodly], for it has to do with the
time of the end. AMP
At first it seems such a terrible thing that the Jews are
in captivity. Then another king will conquer the kingdom and another greater
king will conquer them again. If we had been privy to this vision as a Jew in captivity
we would mourn and weep, because at this point all the Jews wanted was to go
back to their own land. But there is a bigger plan unfolding here that is only
understood in hindsight. As Jeremiah correctly prophesied, after the seventy
years of captivity the Jews are freed but under Assyrian rule. Cyrus conquers
Babylon and lets the Jews go back to Jerusalem and re-build the city wall and
then the temple. Out of 600,000 in captivity only 150,000 Jews go back. The
rest stay either in Assyria, Babylon, or move to other places around the globe.
The Greeks take over the region but that wasn’t all bad either. Instead of
wiping out the Jews and their sacred temple and scriptures, the Greeks
preserved them. The Greeks established the Library at Alexandria, hired seventy
temple scribes to preserve the Torah, the prophets, and the historical records,
most of which was written in hieroglyphs, paleo Hebrew. The scribes made
seventy copies of each book which was then distributed all over the region in
synagogues. This was great improvement for educating the Jews as compared to
what the northern and southern kingdoms had before both kingdoms went into
captivity. This was needful for the coming Messiah. The entire region was
already speaking Aramaic as that was the language of the Assyrians, but now the
entire region had one common written language, Greek. The Greeks preserved the
writings of the Jews so well in or around 300 BCE, we still have the Septuagint
today. We can now see the later alterations that the Masorete’s made to the
text and we have a far better ancient text in the Septuagint. Today, as we read
the prophecies of the Messiah we can understand the need for the dominance and
conquering of the Jews, as it centralized their country, language, and writing.
While we all might have been upset by this vision at the
time it was given, and while we might have felt ultimately hopeless during this
400 year period, the vision was right and true and the events were beneficial
to the generations in the latter days. The Jews had to know that they would
never be sovereign over their own nation in the near future. This in and of
itself was upsetting, but needful for the coming Messiah. The Jews would be
under the authority of other kings, but they would have their city and
sanctuary.
This vision was overwhelming for Daniel. Daniel has more
visions. He mentions that he recognized that the seventy years of captivity
that Jeremiah prophesied were almost over, so he was praying, fasting, and
interceding for the people. Gabriel comes back again to inform Daniel of a very
important vision regarding Jesus. He is going to give Daniel skill, wisdom, and
understanding.
Dan 9:21-23 Yes, while I was speaking in prayer, the man
Gabriel, whom I had seen in the former vision, being caused to fly swiftly,
came near to me and touched me about the time of the evening sacrifice. [Dan
8:16.] 22 He instructed me and made me understand; he talked with me and said,
O Daniel, I am now come forth to give you skill and wisdom and understanding. 23
At the beginning of your prayers, the word [giving an answer] went forth, and I
have come to tell you, for you are greatly beloved. Therefore consider the matter
and understand the vision. AMP
The word for vision here in verse 23 is a bit different
from G3706.

This type of vision is more like a motion picture vision,
it is seen like a ghost, but not necessarily like a being. Considering that
there were no motion pictures or videos in those days, this was a good way of
explaining more than a single image. Instead of a picture or a slide, this is a
movie. It has motion like a ghost, it has several moving parts. This is what he
sees, verse 24 is the scope of the vision.
Dan 9:24 Seventy weeks [of years, or 490 years] are decreed
upon your people and upon your holy city [Jerusalem], to finish and put an end
to transgression, to seal up and make full the measure of sin, to purge away
and make expiation and reconciliation for sin, to bring in everlasting righteousness
(permanent moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation) to seal up
vision (G3706) and prophecy and prophet, and to anoint a Holy of Holies.
Here is the list 1) end transgressions; 2) end sins; 3)
reconciliation for iniquity; 4) everlasting righteousness; 5) seal up vision
and prophecy; 6) anoint the Most Holy. The people will have to go through 70
weeks of years in total 490 years. Verse 25 gives us the 69 weeks of years, on
a 360 day calendar year which was what the Jews were instructed by God to use,
they had the exact days mapped out to the time the Messiah. 483 years.
Dan 9:25 Know therefore and understand that from the going
forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem until [the coming
of] the Anointed One, a Prince, shall be seven weeks [of years] and sixty-two
weeks [of years]; it shall be built again with [city] square and moat, but in
troublous times.
Cyrus allowed the Jews to go back to Jerusalem, but they
could not build the temple at first because of the contentious people who had
been resettled and living in the region. In order to build the temple, they
first had to build the city walls. That was done 3/15/445 BCE. From 445 BCE to
the time of the crucifixion in 32 CE, seven weeks of years to build from the
time of the commandment and 62 weeks of years until the Messiah is 69 weeks.
I do want to point out the need for water here in the
rebuilding of the temple. This is another attestation as to why the temple was
not built where people claim on the temple mount. There is no water on the
temple mount, the temple mount was the Roman fortress that housed the garrison
of the Roman army. The temple had to
have water as part of the daily sacrifices.
Dan 9:26 And after the sixty-two weeks [of years] shall the
Anointed One be cut off or killed and shall have nothing [and no one] belonging
to [and defending] Him…..
Seven weeks of years to rebuild, the 62 weeks of years to the
Messiah. The Messiah rode into Jerusalem on a donkey on April 6, 32 CE. Gabriel
is phenomenally accurate, in fact he really does pinpoint the day as we can see
from Sir Robert Anderson’s work http://www.whatsaiththescripture.com/Text.Only/pdfs/The_Coming_Prince_Text.pdf
In 70 CE the city and sanctuary were destroyed. This is the
end of daily sacrifices. They will be cut off as a flood. War and desolations
were a part of Jerusalem’s history for many years. Jerusalem was abominated
five times and destroyed twice. But there is a mystery that was revealed to
Paul which Jesus alluded to but Paul revealed.
And the people of the [other] prince who will come will
destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come as a flood; and even to
the end there shall be war, and desolations are decreed. [Isa 53:7-9; Nah 1:8;
Matt 24:6-14.]
Remember that Jesus himself said that not one stone would
be left upon another. The Romans, after the civil war of the fascist Zealots
against the people, leveled the city, the hill below the fortress Antonia, and
the temple. This time that we live in is the interval, the time of the Goyim, nations, to come into the Body of
Christ. It is listed 24 times in the Bible and can be understood as the
mystery. Romans 11:25 tells us that we are waiting for the number of nations, Goyim, to be fulfilled.
Dan 8:13 Then I heard a holy
one speaking, and another holy one said to the one that spoke, For how long is
the vision concerning the continual offering, the transgression that makes
desolate, and the giving over of both the sanctuary and the host [of the
people] to be trampled underfoot? [Luke 21:24.] AMP
Luke 21:24 They will fall by
the mouth and the edge of the sword and will be led away as captives to and
among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles until the
times of the Gentiles are fulfilled (completed). [Isa 63:18; Dan 8:13.] AMP
Luke 19:43 For a time is
coming upon you when your enemies will throw up a bank [with pointed stakes]
about you and surround you and shut you in on every side. [Isa 29:3; Jer 6:6;
Ezek 4:2.] 44 And they will dash you down to the ground, you [Jerusalem] and
your children within you; and they will not leave in you one stone upon
another, [all] because you did not come progressively to recognize and know and
understand [from observation and experience] the time of your visitation [that
is, when God was visiting you, the time in which God showed Himself gracious
toward you and offered you salvation through Christ]. AMP
Because they did not recognize the time of the Messiah, the
time of Jesus’ visitation, not one stone was left upon another, and this gap or
interval is the time of the Goyim, nations. Then after the harpazo, the
covenant will be enforced, then broken. This implies that the temple has to be
built again. Today it is not built. Today people are fighting over the fortress
Antonia instead of the site where the real temple stood, over the Gihon
Springs. Today, there is no temple to start the sacrifices in.
Dan 9:27 And he shall enter into a strong and firm covenant
with the many for one week [seven years]. And in the midst of the week he shall
cause the sacrifice and offering to cease [for the remaining three and one-half
years]; and upon the wing or pinnacle of abominations [shall come] one who
makes desolate, until the full determined end is poured out on the desolator. AMP
So somewhere in the middle of the seven year time frame,
during the 70th week, the sacrifices will stop and desolation will
come again. What a vision/apparition that is. We can track this vision up to
the time of Jesus’ riding into Jerusalem and then being cut off, to the
destruction of the city and the temple in 70 CE. That part of the vision is
understandable because we have lived past that time. We are in the midst of the
gap years, of the mystery, the time that the angels wished to look into but
were not allowed. The time, that if the devil had known, he would not have
killed Jesus the Lord of Glory. This is the time period of the pouring out of
the Holy Spirit. This is the time that the young, old, boys, girls, slaves, and
free, from every nation, can have visions and dreams and prophesy.
Daniel saw this last vision in movement. He saw all of
these things happening; the rebuilding of the city, then the temple, the
Messiah coming to make an end of sins, being executed, then the temple being
destroyed. He then saw in motion the covenant in the last seven years and the
desolation that will take place. The part that Daniel did not see, which was
the mystery, was not revealed until after Jesus was crucified; this was the
time of the gentiles, the Goyim. This is a vision that baffled many Jews for
483 years, but once the day of Pentecost arrived and the destruction of the
temple occurred, then the words of Daniel made sense. It is interesting to
note, that Daniel never went back to Jerusalem, he stayed in Babylon. He was
probably around 90 years old at the end of the captivity.
Some visions are in still pictures, some visions are moving
pictures. If we think back to the great prophecies that were shared and
recorded we can see the difference. The reason for visions is as a testament to
Yahweh Elohim. And one does not have to be a holy devout religious person, Jew or
non-Jew, to receive visions. Whoever the Holy Spirit wants to reveal
information to is the Holy Spirit’s choice. Most days our visions from the Holy
Spirit are not grand. Most visions we receive are in regards to our lives and
the lives of those around us and are on a much smaller scale. Next week we will
explore a bit more on this subject of visions.
