Insights to 2017 and Hebrew year 5777

Looking at what the Lord God has revealed about these years through the picture He paints by the Hebrew characters representing these numbers, and the numeric values, history, and the leading and insight provided by the Holy Spirit.

In summary: The first and most important aspect to note is that this coming year marks a major shift in season/era, one that brings great harvest, war (including WW III), trinity kings, and the return of our Lord and the saints reigning with Christ. The season will take place over a thousand year, although key elements in terms of harvest, war, and the battle of kingdoms, and Christ’s return is likely occur in the first two hundred or so years – if not sooner. See the unfolding eras section below on more of this. Be ready, for the years 2030-32 signal a major global event.

For the year of 2017 and 5777, and the next few that follow, expect to see the first fruits of this era that has been marked by God in time. Thus, the outbreak out of kingdom wars, and significant battles, a call to gather to Christ to watch for Him, times of major harvest, changes in kings, and the rise of true apostolic government, even in the world’s systems. A time to seek peace and protection for God’s people, and His lost children. Yet also expect to see major harvests of food (natural and spiritual), and souls –  with the hearts and souls of many funding rest in God as they have opened their hearts to Him (through Christ).  In this period there will be a quick change of earthly royalty (maybe presidential) changes – three sovereign/national leadership changes within the one year.  amazing season where the double and even quadruple portion of God come of Him entering in to those with an open door to Him, and thus He overflows bring nourishment, creative miracles, rest, and transformation. Where the Apostolic release will be manifested in a greater order (and not just in the Church).

One in amongst a season of warring in the natural and spiritual, and needing to wage war with the Sword of God against the outbreak of major wars that occur or are threatened. These wars involve three major kingdoms – others may join, however really focussed around three centres of reign. The grace of God bringing an overflow of Him in us and His church, and thus being a sanctuary and answer in the season of war. A true place of rest, and perhaps speaking of a season of rest from war, as well as one where the battle strategy is to rest in Him.

Press in for the warfare of heaven, knowing our weapons are not carnal, but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds. Be alert, and pray, for the rest from kingdom wars on earth is at risk….man’s works will endeavour to rise up.

The works of man in the trading and financial systems in the world are completely vulnerable to the writhing of Leviathan as he is moved away from the church.

Watch for the King of kings, having entered the house of the Hebrews, He prepares for the harvest. Expect to see a continued call to gather and watch for His return, and hearts of God’s people (Israel and perhaps even the Church) opened to receive a mighty move of God to enter in to our realm as preparation for Christ’s return. Again, watch for great harvest of Jews making a decision for Christ, and even a renewing of the relationship of Christians to Christ…the heavenly signs with sun and moons point to the beginning of this season.

 20(17) – the year 17. 17 in Hebrew Yod (י)  Zayin (ז  or ז)

10 (Yod):

Yod (י) equal to 10: Is a picture of an arm and hand closed, or just arm and hand; resembling also a man in prayer. The meaning of yod being to work, throw, or worship.

The number 10 also speaks of God’s completeness, quorum, God’s order, and base number.

The symbol of Yod (י) speaks of His presence in all things, as that symbol is in all other characters of the Hebrew alphabet.

7 (Zayin): ז  or ז

Zayin is a picture of a mattock or sword. Meanings include food, cut, and nourish. It is said to speak of war and food, and even warring for food.

7: Is the number of completion and rest, wholeness, and blessing.

Zayin also speaks of cutting time in to seven:

• Shabbat (Sabbath) – 7^th day
• Shauvot = 49^th day of Passover
• Tishri – 7^th month of the Hebrew year
• Shemitah – 7^th year of rest for the land
• Yovel – 49^th
• Millenium kingdom – the 7^th millennium of human history (week of millenniums).

Zayin (ז) is said to be a crowned Vav/Vau (ו or ו).  (Vav representing man and a straight light from God to man).  Zayin is therefore seen to represent returning light (of heaven), Crowned man; King, and King of kings.

5777 the next Hebrew year

Represented by Hey (5) Zayin (7) Zayin (7) Zayin (7) – ה ז ז ז  – as all Hebrew letters also represent numbers.

5 (Hey):  or ה

Hey (ה) equal to 5: Is a picture a man with arms raised. The meanings include look, reveal, breath, and behold. There is a particular sense of divine breath, revelation and light, and His creative power (ie. He spoke and it was). Gen. 1:3-4; Ps. 33:6).

The divine presence meaning of this character is also revealed when we look at the calling in to God’s purpose. When looking at the Hebrew, the introduction of He by God to Abram and Sarai creating Abraham and Sarah. This prefix to the names converting ‘a man’, to ‘the man’.

Also traditionally the character for He is said to be created when part (י – Yod) of Aleph (representing God) left to join the brokenness of humanity represented by Dalet, redeeming and bring God in man. Meaning opening the heart to the Spirit of God…and thus salvation and Christ in us. Aleph: א; Yod: י; Dalet: ד ; Hey: ה or הּ

5 is also seen in the Bible clearly, such as the 5 fold gifting (see Ephesians) of Christ; is the Apostolic number; and the full hand. Hebrew meanings also relating to 5 dimensions and the complete soul.

7 (Zayin): ז  or ז

Zayin is a picture of a mattock or sword. Meanings include food, cut, and nourish. It is said to speak of war and food, and even warring for food.

7: Is the number of completion and rest, wholeness, and blessing.

Zayin also speaks of cutting time in to seven:

• Shabbat (Sabbath) – 7^th day
• Shauvot = 49^th day of Passover
• Tishri – 7^th month of the Hebrew year
• Shemitah – 7^th year of rest for the land
• Yovel – 49^th
• Millenium kingdom – the 7^th millennium of human history (week of millenniums).

Zayin (ז) is said to be a crowned Vav/Vau (ו or ו).  (Vav representing man and a straight light from God to man).  Zayin is therefore seen to represent returning light (of heaven), Crowned man; King, and King of kings.

The Hebrew Year is more often represented ‘Hey (5) Tav (400) Shin (300) Ayin (70) Vav (6)’ – התשׁעַ ז – utilising the addition of 400 and 300 to make 700 – thus 5776. The year can also be represented by ‘Hey (5) Nun (700) Ayin (70) Zayin (7)’ –  ה נ עַ ז  – utilising the final form of the letter Nun in the Hebrew alphabet, although this does not occur often, but is a legitimate way of representing the year.

Ayin (עַ) is a picture of an eye, with meanings of: watch, to see, discern, shade, understand, and know. Thus giving a sense of the prophetic watch, as well as knowing/seeing what is coming. Ayin is sometimes described as having two eyes that have a common optic nerve leading to the mind (will), and the sense you can have a good eye or bad eye, and the obvious choice is to look with a good eye (and in humility) – see Matt. 6:22,23.

Tav/tau (ת) is a pictograph of crossed sticks, and is associated with meanings of: mark, sign, sign post, monument, and the Cross (of Christ).

Shin/sin (שׁ/שׂ) is apparently a pictograph representing two front teeth, and is associated with meanings of: sharp, press, eat, and two. In looking at the meaning and the opicture for ‘tav’ as well, for me it is easy to see the Cross that bore our sins  – represented by ‘Sin’, and the teeth on edge due to sin (Jer. ), and sharp nails that pierced our Saviours hands and feet. However having said that, in Judaism Shin also stands for the word Shaddai, a name for God. Look up for the coming of the Lord.

Nun (ן or נ) is a pictograph representing a seed, and has associated meanings of: seed, ‘son of’, heir, continue, son, faithfulness, and promised seed. Interestingly in Aramaic ‘Nun ‘also has the meaning of ‘fish’, and is this fish that was used as Greek symbol for Christ and Christians.

Hebrew Year 5777:

Thus we see (in the Lord) this year is:

• Above all things, is a marker year, denoting the ending of one era (millennium) and the commencing of a new era – Divine marker, the drawing of a line in time.
• Of nourishment and food; Bountiful harvest
• Of war and warring for nourishment
• Of the sword (in the natural and spiritual), with the Sword of God (His word) triumphant; Three swords
• Three kings; Three kingdoms
• Of the Crowned King; Apostolic year. The Christ and His Sword.
• Watch and see the Lord entering the God works of man;
• Revelation (as people watch for the Lord) – including inspiration for great inventions
• Christ (who bore our sins in His body on the Cross of Calvary) is watching over His word to perform it, and see His Holy Spirit visit, invade, and fill the open doors of His house and His people.
• The Seed of God, Christ (or is God), watches of His Spirit as He enter the open doors, and perhaps even the sense of watch for the Lord to come and invade again humanity.
• The Bride (Church) – Moving from teenage years to adulthood.
• Of rest and resting in the Lord.
• Where the House of God is the refuge from war, and who prayers counter war.
• A War and a Wedding Feast

So for 2017 and 5777….

Thus bring the two together, the first and most important aspect to note that this marks a major shift in season/era, one that brings great harvest, war (including WW III), trinity kings, and the return and the saints reigning with Christ. The season will take place over a thousand year, although key elements in terms of harvest, war, and the battle of kingdoms, and Christ’s return is likely occur in the first wo hundred or so years – if not sooner. See the unfolding eras section below on more of this.

For the year of 2017 and 5777, and the next few that follow, expect to see the first fruits of this era that has been marked by God in time. Thus, break out of war, and significant battles. A time to seek peace and protection for God’s people, and His lost children. Yet also expect to see major harvests of food (natural and spiritual), and souls –  with the hearts and souls of many funding rest in God as they have opened their hearts to Him (through Christ).  In this period there will be a quick change of earthly royalty (maybe presidential) changes – three sovereign/national leadership changes within the one year.  amazing season where the double and even quadruple portion of God come of Him entering in to those with an open door to Him, and thus He overflows bring nourishment, creative miracles, rest, and transformation. Where the Apostolic release will be manifested in a greater order (and not just in the Church). One in amongst a season of warring in the natural and spiritual, and needing to wage war with the Sword of God against the outbreak of major wars that occur or are threatened. These wars involve three major kingdoms – others may join, however really focussed around three centres of reign. The grace of God bringing an overflow of Him in us and His church, and thus being a sanctuary and answer in the season of war. A true place of rest, and perhaps speaking of a season of rest from war.

We are also entering a period of the renewed watch (looking up) for Christ’s return, with a real sense we will see God entering His House. ..church, the Temple, and His people (Jews and Christians).

Unfolding Eras – What the Era marked by 5777 (and others) brings

When considering the years that end in ‘777’, there are common elements, mostly associated that each represents the seasonal shift in to a new era, where the Lord God has denoted a divine marker in earthly time signalling the end of one period, and the beginning of another. This period is also associated with three kings (governmental change), three swords (war), rest, and harvest. The Lord will no doubt provide much more specific prophetic revelation (than above) in relation to the events within the year, however the below is more provided as prophetic insight as to the major eras of history and future to come on earth – recognising the time from our perspective, is much different than that from God’s perspective. As in all things, this should be taken to the Lord, and considered prayerfully and test according to the Scriptures. Forit is understood that now we see in part.

Consider the patter the Lord reveals in the previous epochs:

2(777) – 2 is represented by Hebrew character Bet (ב), and speaks of the house of God, revealing God’s intention to dwell with us (us in His house, and He in us as His house). It is about the house. This year equates to 984/985 BC, and in history as well as seeing many king changing during the time that followed this especially in Israel (and the super power Egypt), however at this time we saw the reign of King David and then his son Solomon, and the important season that saw the building of the Temple, and David’s Tabernacle – it is about the House.

3(777) – 3 is represented by the Hebrew character Gimmel (ג), and in represents God pursuing (coming after) man to do kindness, and riding of camels. It can also be said to be the witness of the three-fold aspect of God – the Holy Trinity. An indeed, 3777 is the years 16/17 AD, where our Lord Jesus is around 20 years of age, and in this season we have seen God send His Son to do kindness, and three wise men and camels came to acknowledge that. In the period that follows we saw the ongoing pursuit of man by God for salvation with the birth and rapid expansion of the church, with many trials, and the passion of the great commission played out across the world.

4(777) – 4 is represented by the Hebrew character Dalet (ד), and speaks of the door, and also the works of man. Thus we see a season and era of open doors, and the pursuit of new doors, however very much led by man, and him seeking to establish his own way and reign. This door can also be one that requires humbling in order to enter. It can speak of poverty, and of God knocking at the door. The year 4777 equates to around 1016/17 AD, where we find ourselves in the dark ages, and very much a seasons of ongoing kingdom changes (The Dane King Cnut assumes the reign of England having defeated the Saxons, the Normans rule southern Italy), and some of the great sad events follow over the next thousand years as man uses religion to carry great pain, or simply seeks greater empires – and world wars.

Thus leading us to the new era (epoch) being marked by 5777, and those that follow.

5(777) – 5 is represented by the Hebrew character Hey (ה), and speaks of God entering man (the open door); Divine breath/breath of God; Creative power; and Divine help where God enters man (and His world). Thus we see the Holy Spirit moving in power, and God in power entering the open door. This number also speaks of Light; Five-fold; and Fruitfulness; and Kingdom of God (fivefold) government. Therefore, we see in this thousand-year era God entering man’s world in power, as the three-fold witness of the crowned King of kings, and establishing His reign with the saints[1] (the thousand-year reign which is likely to go in to the one to two hundred years after 6777). This is likely to be proceed with major kingdom wars[2] (in the natural and spiritual realms, even World War III – early in this season), great harvests, and then great rest.

(Note: Of course this may seem to be an outrageous claim, and perhaps it is, however we should also remember that Christ comes again as a thief in the night[3], and in the beginning of the third day since his first coming…and these days are as a thousand years[4]. So thus sometime in the years following 2030AD this new era begins, and perhaps aligned to the beginning of the seventh day of a thousand years according to the Hebrew calendar (6000 – or 2239AD). There is a strong sense it will be closer to the start of the earlier period marked by 2030/32AD as Christ established a new mark in time at His arrival. While Jesus Christ confirms that only the Father knows[5] the day of His return, He does also show us that there we are to discern the season of His return, watch vigilantly, and acknowledge the signs[6] so as to be ready. In the timing of history, the insight provided by the Hebrew calendar, signs and wonders and world events, and the future as revealed by the seer anointing, the Lord does provide insight to these seasons.)

6(777) – 6 is represented by the Hebrew character Vav (ו) and speaks of heaven being hooked to earth (heaven meets earth); the restoration of the Tabernacle; God restoring the generations; and new creation. Given the period, we see the reign of the Son of Man, and man reigning. With the meaning of 777 added, a like above, we see this year marking the epoch/era where the final war of wars occurs to defeat Satan and death[7], at the end of the millennium reign of Christ and the saints, where the devil is thrown in to the eternal pit of fire, along with all his followers. God then reveals His new heaven and earth. The Tabernacle of God is made complete on earth, and heaven is pinned to earth…two have become one. The time over which this occurs is not clear in the Bible, but sense this occurs during this era, and the noting of the millennium reign would suggest the new Jerusalem, earth, and heaven occur around the Hebrew year 7000 (3239AD).

Importantly the earthly calendars cease to have a real measure sometime after the return of Christ, as the redeeming of time means that the heavenly clock, is established on earth as it is heaven, and we know longer measure time ‘under the sun/moon’.

7(777) – As noted earlier 7 is represented by the Hebrew character Zayin (ז), and speaks of the Crowned Man (particularly the King of kings when taken in the context of the year), sword, rest, Sabbath, time ending and beginnings, harvest and food. In the four fold of seven, we see the completion of the marking of time. Suggesting a period that speaks of complete rest, for there is no other marker of time other than the seven of rest, and thus eternity reigns.

More insight to why 6 is important – heaven meets earth.

6 (Vav):  or ו

Vav (ו) equal to 6: Is a picture of a tent peg or hook. Principally associated with the tabernacle (tent of God), and the hook (Ex. 27:9-10) that hung up the outer court curtain that went around (encloses) the tabernacle, but is also linked with the tent peg. The meanings include add, secure, hook, and fasten.

The number 6 has strong biblical associations with man (created on the 6^th day), and the work of man – works for 6 days.  The first Vav in the Bible (Torah) occurs in Genesis 1:1 and its placement suggests a joining of heaven and earth, and thus a connection between spiritual and earthly matters.  It is also associated with divine hook[8] between heaven and earth.

The hook revealed in Vav (Hebrew for 6), pointing to the ministry of the one who carries and is the hook of God…Enoch. The anointing that will be released, and ministry, is to join with God’s appointed hook bearer. The meaning of his name points to one dedicated and initiated by God, trained for a particularly ministry for the Lord, with the mouth, and who is the hook in the mouth. Perhaps more succinctly, one trained and dedicated by God, whose mouth is God’s weapon, and used by the Lord to hook the mouth of the enemy.

So we see the link with how the Lord will deal with Leviathan, who He reveals will be directed and led away by the line and the hook in its mouth (Job 41:1; Is. 19:8), and ultimately defeated by the Lord and in its writhing pain. Revelations reveals its fall also associated with the bringing down of spirit of Babylon (include the world financial systems). So expect to see the world’s financial systems shake even further in response to the hooking of Leviathan.

16 = 8+8 = Double gates

8 = Chet ( ) – picture of tent wall or fence; meaning outside, divide, half. As Chet is made by the joining Vav and Zayin by a thin line at the top, it is said to be also the doorway to life (as in representing door over which the blood of the lamb was placed), and the doorway of light[9] from heaven.

Vav is said to general refer to man/and people; Zayin often associated with time; And thus in Chet they are joined and so seen as representing spending time in community. You can see then the gate of heavens opening such that we can enter in to community with each other in God’s house.

As eight is also the number of grace, and meaning new beginning, there seems to be an agreement in heaven with a grace of God to enter to gather in community in the gate of heaven. Bringing in Yod and Vav, and you also have the sense of been set up, and building the place of dwelling around His tabernacle…and in a place of worship and prayer (in unity).

Season of the two realms – Hebrew decade 577(0-9)

When we consider this period we note the picture provided by God of ‘77’ (ז  – Zayin ; ז  – Zayin):

• In the natural realm we see kings waging war with each other
• In the kingdom of God realm (and way), we see kings in the Lord waging spiritual war and thus receiving nourishment and food.
• In the season we need to remember the King of kings (Christ) has victory in all things. This in the kingdom of heaven will have victory, and be places of refuge and nourishment.

 

Blood moons and 2015 – remember these marked the start of a season

Much has been written about the four (tetrarch of) blood moons that start around Passover in 2014 (15/4/14), then at Sukkot (8/10/14), followed by again by Passover the following year (4/4/15) and finally Sukkot of that year (28/9/15). All this with a full eclipse of the sun occurring 20/3/15 in Nissan. There is Hebrew tradition pointing to the moon as signs pertaining to people of Israel (and perhaps by extension the church), and the sun the whole world.  This series of heavenly signs (Is. 13:10; Mk. 13:24,25; Joel 2:31; Acts 2:20) also occurring in 1492, 1948, and 1967, when major events have shaped the future of Israel.

When considering 2014 as the year of the open door, and 2015 as the year He enters the open door (of His house), there is certainly a sense that 2015 marked the beginning of a great move of His Spirit and heaven on earth amongst His people, some suggesting even the return of Christ. Intercessory gatherings increasing as they found themselves called to watch/intercessory gatherings a year ahead of Passover in 5775 (2015) in response to the open door. Not only watching over the opening of the door this year, but His entering next year. These signs also speaking to the earth, and perhaps we should expect mighty event this year that will spring open stubborn doors, revealed ancient ones, or gentle moves as others simply response to Christ’s knocking at the door….allows His entering in.

A strong movement of the Jews to Christ as their hearts open to Him, perhaps preceded by events/anointing bringing repentance that leads to such open hearts, is to come. This seems to be underlined given the knowledge that in Hebrew the character that represents (the Hebrew month) Nissan is Hei (also has value 5), and Nissan (meaning miracles from Nisan[10]), also has the final form of Hebrew Nun (ן) in it (which has value 700) – all very much associated with year 5775. The world will see great miracles in Nissan (March/April) next year, and God’s people great redemption and salvation.

 

A mystery about the time to come

At the eclipse of the sun, and the double moons, so the harvest begins…

[10] Nisan is a month of miracles, as its name stems from the Hebrew word for “miracles” (ניסים). The fact that the name Nisan (ניסן) possesses two nuns (נ and ן) implies according to the sages to “miracles of miracles” (ניסי ניסים). Of the future redemption, it is said: “As the days of your exodus from Egypt, I shall reveal to him wonders.”
