Minister: Rev. Kayode Oyegoke
“[1-2]After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. [2] And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.” (Rev. 4:1-8). The witness that came through the tongues and interpretation emphasized ‘forty-four’. The number ‘4’ is the visible dimension of the realm of God. The throne also has four faces (Rev. 4:6-7). In the book of Ezekiel, each beast had four faces and four wings (Ezek. 1:10), but in the book of Revelation, John saw the beasts having six wings (Rev. 4:8). It is likely that John and Ezekiel saw the same beings.
“And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it. [27] And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.” (Ezek. 1:26-27). This Person is not Logos but the Father. This Being had a fiery appearance; amber as a color is fiery. His appearance had a brightness roundabout while the other had a pure colour of amber. Although it was a colour, it had the appearance of fire.
The word ‘appearance’ connotes that the amber color was not a fire absolutely. In this vision, Ezekiel saw the divisions of the Almighty: His loins upwards being different from His loins downwards. This is why you should not kindle Him. God surrounded Himself with these shining members, glowing in nature.
“And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.” (Rev. 4:3). The glory of He who sat upon the throne was jasper in the book of Revelation, but what He really looked like was sardine. Jasper and Sardine are the first and the last stones (of the 12 stones) on the breastplate of the high priest, which represents the tribes of Israel.
“[10]So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.” (Exek. 37:1-10). God continued judging until He remedied the issue of death by raising an army from the valley of the dry bones. The valley of dry bones was an allegory of Lucifer’s fall, revealed in Ezekiel 28. The remedy to death is the bringing back of the people of God from the valley of dryness. The valley of dryness constitutes all the places where the people of God had been scattered across the nations of the earth (Ezek. 36). God has promised to recover His people until they enter into the city and partake of Eternal Life.
In these last days, God will raise an exceeding great army which would lead to the end of all the enemies of God, even the perpetuator of death. What makes this army is found in Ezekiel 36:24-38. One does not become a part of this great army by just being born again, for armies are those who have been called as one in their soul. Those who make up this army must have been called from their different countries.
The dry bones were scattered. These bones connote a dimension of the soul that is still left. The flesh of the bones have been eaten, including the sinews, and the bones have been disjointed, but there is yet a need of God for an army. To raise this army, God first raises a prophet who is a one-man army that will prophesy to the bones, just as Ezekiel did. The essence of prophesying to these bones is to bring God’s people back from the places they were lost.
“Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.” (Ezek. 37:4). God is going to raise an army with a capacity to call back those who are lost in far countries. The valley refers to far countries. Thus, calling them from a far country is actually going to the valley to take them out, but this process begins by first gathering them.
“For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. [25] Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.” (Ezek. 36:24-25). There is the need for gathering because the people had been scattered. Christ is the power for gathering the people. Thus, when Christ is being taught, people are being gathered and then begin to return (journey) from their lost estates (Ezek. 37:7).
When a soul is journeying, there will be a noise, a rattling, a shaking, as a result of bones locating bones. When Christ is being taught, bones are being put together. When Christ has been fully taught and all the bones are together, it is time to prophesy to the flesh. To prophecy to flesh is to prophesy charity on the bones. When all the bones have been put together in their skeletal arrangement, then, hope has been built. After that, prophecy for sinews and covering (skin) can take place. Lastly, to give the bones everlasting life, prophecy to the wind is made. At this point, the army is raised, that is, they have become divine. However, it does not end there, as the army needs to be given Eternal Life and it is at this point, they are rewarded.
Thus, from the account in Ezekiel 37, there are activities that precede the giving of the reward. The exceeding great army is needed to pull down Satan. Men who will walk in God’s light on the earth are needed to pull down Satan. The operation of Ezekiel denotes the raising of a one-man army. This one-man army is the man-child who would be digging the valleys, arranging and aligning the bones for God. Then, they will overcome evil spirits, the beast and the dragon.
Although, the operation of the man-child stops at pulling down the dragon, it is equivalent to destroying the beast and binding Satan. Immediately, the dragon is pulled down, the man-child would have reached the city before getting to the general people. A time will come that the city will minister to many. Yet, there are those who would walk in the city ahead of time and it is God’s expectation that we come into the city before the city ministers to many at large.
The beast is not a special creature, but a man who is an enemy of everlasting life. The formation of the beast is the raising of a wrong nature within the soul. As you walk in the statutes of God, you kill the laws of the beast, and invariably, kill the beast too. The beast is raised by Satan to kill the laws of God in his own heart; he will kill himself before killing others.
The beast is made up of a law. The putting together of his laws, which are his names, is via writing. To write the laws of the Satanic beast is to create him. There is the number of the beast and this means his laws can be counted. Those are the numbers of his members; they are laws, which when placed in a man will make him exactly like the beast. Similarly, to make any man everlasting is to create a beast on the positive side. As such, the Lamb is a beast made up of a law. One needs to be a positive beast to destroy the evil beast. Paul fought with the beast of Ephesus (1 Cor. 15:32) and these were not ordinary demons. Beasts are entities with multiple laws and manifold operations mustered together.
There should be an expiration of the nature of man in those whom God is raising to become a part of His army. Man has to be expired such that another being will be raised. The sons of the morning (Ezek. 28:14) have a very beautiful physique because of the beastly work God wrought in them. God made them more than mere men. The reason God surrounds Himself with beasts is because normal people cannot stand there; you need such complex beings to accommodate His power and His light (1 Tim. 6:16).
There is a being higher than man. When the things of man are taken away, such a person is no longer a man. A higher law must be given to a man to make him multidimensional. This is why the realm of God is multifaceted with many things working as one (Eph. 3:10). They are working in different directions yet, there is a synchrony. As such, they are not divided.
The nature of the tree of Life is multidimensional; it has twelve manner of fruits. The tree of Life is a beastly tree that no other tree can comprehend. There are twelve seasons (months) for each fruit and each fruit must yield in its own season.
It will take the beastly frame to attain the throne. A beast is one who can take all manner of ministrations of God at once. A beast can carry many kinds of responsibilities. This is why certain animals are referred to as beasts of burden. Beasts do not rest day and night, even though they have a rest. Jesus is an example of a positive beast. Although, He is at rest, He is not shut down. It is this beastly nature that enabled Him destroy Satan.
A beast is unsearchable – he cannot be found out. We are being made to drink into a life until that law of the positive beast is eventually entrenched into us. The young lamb has something that the four beasts lack. He appears as both a lamb and lion, but He is more than these; He is everything put together. He made all things and all things are in Him (Col. 1:16). The beastly nature is an ability to use all things. These things will be put into us as installations in our reward.
A beast is one who tears laws down. The Lord is going to empower us to destroy the beasts of the field and of the air. There are many beastly laws that are flying around and eating up the church, but the Lord is going to empower us to tear them down. Satan is also promoting certain beastly men on earth. However, the Lord is going to raise up His own everlasting beasts – beasts of righteousness and beasts of everlasting life.
There are beasts around the throne but these are holy beasts. Satan has brutality but there are good beasts that deal with brutes; they tear down evil laws. Shortly, the earth is going to witness men who are greater and have been raised higher than the natural man. Such beings will bear good animals within them which can take down laws.
When we have fully finished the course of the Father, we will hold the Godhead. The Godhead is a complexity made of beastly compounds. That is why He cannot be found out. To hold the head is to interact with a dimension that exceeds the body capacity. Thus, we will no longer think like the body but like heads. This would happen to both men and women who have the laws of God written in them.
Women have been given all kinds of wrong visions and empowerment but to empower a woman is to give her a diferent meaning to life. God is going to take hold of women and give them His life. Many women are going to arise from the body and many will wonder at them. The world is about to witness finished armies.
We are meant to transition into a kind of entity that can take God. This is a realm where no man has seen nor can see (1 Tim. 6:16). At that point, we will no longer have beginning of days nor end of life (Heb. 7:3), for we would have been taken out of the fold of men into the fold of God. Men will be raised with God’s kind of sense who no longer think like creatures. Such men will have been helped to come into the lineage of the Creator. These are sons of God who think like God thinks. We shall be made true Reubens, thereby becoming the excellency of His dignity (Gen. 49:3). We would not only be dignitaries, but also the excellency of His dignity.
A beast is a being that man cannot handle. The first meal of the beastly world is manna. When we receive the hidden manna, everything about man expires and we are opened up into a thought process in the spirit. The carnal mind cannot be subject to the law of God that is revealed in these things that we are hearing (Rom. 8:7). A beast tears his prey down and does not allow it to escape and this is what we will do to our enemies.
We need to possess the gates of our enemies (Gen. 22:17). These gates are gates of death that we are meant to own. Jesus possesses the keys of hell and death (Rev. 1:18). What God will put in us has the ability to swallow death. Hell and death will see this and be frightened. We will have the ability to swallow up things that kill and they will have no effect on us. In Rick Joyner’s vision, certain men were eating snakes (evil laws) and were even made better by it. A time will come also, that we will eat what Satan throws at us.
We will swallow laws that belong to Satan and frighten him. Men will arise who are unaffected by his laws. Such men will not abstain from Satan but go after his laws to swallow them. Death has been eating people but it will soon be consumed and destroyed. The instruments that God will put in us will swallow up everything that Satan can muster. We will fall upon our enemy, break and stretch him out like a prey. Jesus does not fear death, for He is a killer too and we will fear Him until we become like Him (Rev. 2:23).
