Psalm 107 is all about tribulation and being rescued by the Lord.

2007 to 2017 is ten years of Tribulation according to Revelation 2:10 using a day equaling a year.

10 Year Tribulation from 2007 to 2017

2007 September 15, Shabbat Yamin Noraim

Days of Awe

Parashah #52 Scripture Readings Va-Yelech (And He Went) Torah Deuteronomy 31:1-30 Haftarahs Isaiah 55:6-56:8

Today the Parashah is Va-Yelech which means "And He Went." Va-Yelech was the Parashah on the first Sabbath in the Physical Universe. Moses was 120 years old when he gave us Va-Yelech. It is 120 Jubilee years from Creation until the Messiah's reign.

Jesus says we’ll have 10 days of tribulation not 42 months or 3.5 years or 7 years. This “7 Years of Tribulation” is sold by the same crowd (Darby, Scofield, LaHaye and Hal Lindsey) that brought a long list of fables.

    Jesus told us (servants as we read in Rev. 1:1) that the tribulation we read in Revelation would be 10 “days” in prophetic language.

    The Lord tells us repeatedly, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” This would apply to each of the 7 in total as well as to each church individually.

The Lord spoke in parables (riddles). So, what is this, 10 days we read in Revelation 2:10? “You will have tribulation for 10 days.”

Look at Ezekiel for the clue. “When you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah; I have assigned it to you for forty days, a day for each year” (Ezekiel 4:6).

    Now read Numbers for confirmation of this “day for a year” understanding of prophetic language.

    “According to the number of days which you spied out the land, forty days, for every day you shall bear your guilt a year, even forty years, and you will know My opposition” (Numbers 14:34). Ten days is 10 years.

    The Lord is telling us in Rev. 2:10 there will be 10 years of increased testing, leading up to His return. It’s not “7 Years of Tribulation.”

    It’s between September 15, 2007 and September 23, 2017. The beginning and end dates are identified in the sign in the heavens with a unique Hebrew Shabbat day – Shuvah.

     On September 15, 2007 (Shabbat Shuvah) there is Virgo with the moon at her feet clothed in the sun and Mercury (angelic messenger) at her side.

Messenger?

    Where is the Scripture reference for this “messenger” being relevant to the end of the age and the book of Revelation?

See Revelation 1 verse 1. “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John” (Rev. 1:1).

    Oh, He does this by His angel to His servants and to His servant John.

     Jeremiah 10:2 tells us to not be dismayed at the signs in the heavens. This is the same reading of the heavens and the same process applied by the wise men who came to worship Him at His birth. When looking at Virgo the key to knowing when there is sign is when the sun is located within Virgo and the moon is at her feet (Rev. 12:1).

    This event is a very special. The moon is at her feet for one day and not for 2 or 3 days. The signs in the heavens is like a big clock.

     The sweep second hand is the moon. It changes daily over the course of a month.

     The minute hand is the sun. It marks the minutes of a day and the seasons.

     The hour hand are represented by planets as they move slowly across the sky through the 12 constellations.

    The face of this heavenly clock are the constellations which don’t move but are seen in the winter or summer (seasons). Those constellations seen over Jerusalem are the watch face. It is not constellations over the southern sky (south of the equator).

    Virgo is the key to understanding the timing of the heavenly clock (Rev. 12:1). The wise men watched Leo and Virgo. They paid attention to Jupiter, Venus, and Regulus.

    Star of David/Bethlehem. 2 BC Feb 17 Jupiter and Regulus in Leo. May 8 Jupiter and Regulus in Leo. June 17. Jupiter and Venus. July 2, Month 3, Rosh Codesh, Day 4, Mercury conjoined with Regulus in Leo; 2 BC (August 26, Month 5, Day 4) Mercury, Venus conjoined in Leo, Mars and Jupiter; 2 BC (Aug. 11) Jupiter and Venus join in Leo; 2 BC (Sept 14-17, Month 6, Day 4) Jupiter conjoined with Regulus in Leo (Total run 12 days); 1 BC (Feb 17, Month 11, Day 4) Jupiter in Conjuction with Regulus in Leo; 1 BC (May 2, Month 2, Day 4) BC Jupiter in conjuction with Regulus in Leo; 1 BC (Jun 11, Month 3, Day 5) Venus almost conjoins with Regulus in Leo; 1 BC (June 16, Month 3, Day 4) Jupiter and Venus conjoined in Leo; 1 BC (July 7, Month 4, Day 4) Mars conjoins with Regulus in Leo; 1 BC (August 14, Month 5, Day 7) Mercury conjoins with Regulus in Leo; 1 BC (August 25, Month 6, Day 4) Mars, Jupiter, Mercury conjoin in Leo.

Note: It is interesting to note that the planets converged 8x on the Christ Candle (center candle) of a Menorrah,1 on Friday, 1 on Sabbath.

Note: -2 BC. August 23 Israel Set Apart, Venus\Mercury conjoin and stay conjoin for 10 days.

8/11 Jupiter and Venus join. 8/16 Venus and Regulus join. Feb 17 Jupiter and Regulus in Leo. May 8 Jupiter and Regulus in Leo. June 17. Jupiter and Venus

Note: 1 BC/CE was a Shemitah year.

    We can do the same today. When this alignment occurs – sun over Virgo and moon at her feet – then look at planets locations in Virgo (virgin, spiritual Israel), in Leo (Judah) and in other constellations on that day.

     The moon is at the feet of Virgo on the 15th of September, 2007 and not the day before (Sept 14th) or the day after (September 16th).

    There is a sign within Virgo that points to ~ Saturday the 15th of September, 2007 ~ which is a very special day, “Shabbat Shuvah.”

This Shabbat Shuvah is special day and it occurs every year. But, the sign within Virgo (moon at her feet and clothed in the sun) does not occur every year on Shabbat Shuvah.

    Well, 10 years later, on September 23, 2017 (Shabbat Shuvah)on the Biblical Day of Trumpet there is Virgo with the moon at her feet and she is clothed in the sun.

     This time —- Jupiter (representation of God) is with Virgo (virgin), while Venus (representation of Jesus) is in Leo (King of Judah).

     On this day (moon at the feet of Virgo and clothed in the sun), these planets are in alignment: Venus (representing Jesus), Mars (representing war), Mercury (representing angelic messenger) and Jupiter (representing God).

     The alignment also includes Regulus (King Star) at the top and Jupiter (King Planet) is at the base – located next to Virgo (Virgin, spiritual Israel). The alignment stretches between Leo (Judah) and Virgo (Israel).

     This alignment seems to represent order.

     On September 23, 2017, Saturn (representing Satan/Dragon) is in Ophiuchus who is depicted as a man grasping a serpent.

     This is appropriate; “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the abyss and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for 1,000 years…After that, he must be released for a short time” (Rev. 20:1-3, HCSB).

    3.5 years of that (2007-2017) is the Great tribulation which is the last 3.5 years and if you do not realize this then realize this: Most of it will occur in the Middle East.

    Psalms 108 refers to 2008 but the Dawning was on the Special Sabbath on Days of Awe in 2007 on the day after the Day of Trumpet in 2007. This day began the 10 year tribulation period of Revelation 2:10. The Day of Trumpet in 2007 began the Civil year for 2008 and the Biblical year would begin in the month of Abib in 2008.

    Who are the Lord's anointed and what is our responsibility to them? To answer this, we first must look back to the story in I Samuel 24 and the year of 1011 BCE.

1011 BC David's Psalm at Gath (1Sa 21) Psalm 56; Saul Slays the Priests of Nob 1 Samuel 22; David's Psalms in the Cave (1Sa 22) Psalms 57, 142; David Flees Saul 1 Samuel 23; David's Psalm at Keilah (1Sa 23) Psalm 54; David Spares Saul's Life 1 Samuel 24; Samuel Dies 1 Samuel 25; David Spares Saul a Second Time 1 Samuel 26

1010 BC Sabbath Year (Shemitah)

    David had again escaped Saul, and was now at Engedi at a place called “the rocks of the wild goats”. In this part of Palestine, there are many caves, some formed by nature and some made by man. These caves were used to shelter the flocks from the weather and to shelter the herdsmen as well.

    Saul had been notified again of David's whereabouts. He took 3000 men and came after him. Remember now, David had only 600 men, and these men were not trained soldiers, but were discouraged and disheartened men who had sought out David for help. How would you like to be faced with these odds!

     Evidently, David had separated himself from men, probably to rest from the heat of the sun, and had selected one of the caves in which to seek shelter. It may have been that he went to the cave to seek protection from Saul. For whatever reason, Saul, not knowing David was in this particular cave, also came into the cave to rest.

     Now there were several different chambers in this cave. David was in a side chamber, and when Saul went in to sleep, David slipped in and cut off the edge of Saul's skirt. After David did this, he fled for safety without Saul ever realizing what had happened. However, David's conscience began to bother him because he had lifted his hand and weapon against th Lord's anointed Saul.

     There are people in our lives that have been appointed by God for a special purpose. These could be pastors, deacons, Church teachers, Evangelists, Elijah's of today, or perhaps a father, mother, or another person in our family or in our working relationships. We must be very careful not to cross or embarrass these people as we deal with them, as God has appointed them. These cautions might also apply to our mates.

     David felt he had brought embarrassment to Saul, and he kept his men from going into the cave to slay Saul. After Saul arose, still not realizing anything had transpired, David came forward and called to Saul. The KJV Bible says” Saul looked around/down. David was probably below Saul, so he could have escaped before Saul could reach him. Therefore, Saul did not attempt to chase David. Notice that David called out “My Lord, the King”. David may not have respected the person Saul himself, but he did respect the position that Saul held. We may not always respect a person, but we must always respect the position of authority that person holds.

    David rehearsed the events of the past to Saul, and Saul acknowledged that David was in fact more righteous than he, but this does not represent actual repentance by Saul. It was an acknowledgment by Saul that God's hand was upon David, and that David would become king. David in turn promised that he would not cut off the name of Saul in Israel. Saul took his men and went back home, but David and his men stayed on and David wrote Psalms 57 and 108.

     Also, David stood in imagination at the beginning of those conquests which made Israel great and extended her frontiers to the great river Euphrates. He felt that God had spoken in His holiness, and had already given him the territories here enumerated. All that remained for him to do was to occupy and possess what the Almighty had allotted. There is a close analogy here to our appropriation of those heavenly blessings which are ours in the risen Lord. It is not we who can tread down our adversaries. They are too strong and crafty. But when our heart is fixed, God goes before us, vanquishing our foes, and we have but to follow after, gathering in the spoils. In our inner conflicts, vain is human help, even the best. Go before us, Great Shepherd, with thy rod and staff!

With God We Shall Do Valiantly

Psa 108:1 A Song/Shir or Psalm/mismor of David (Psalms 108Â-110 relate to the true David, and His humiliation, deliverance, and triumph. The first of fifteen Davidic Psalms in this fifth book. This subject appears in each book as the root and source of all blessing. Instead of a new Psalm being written for this subject here, a composite Psalm is formed by a combination of parts of Psa_57:7-11 and Psa_60:6-12). O God/Elohim, my heart is fixed/steadfast; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory (Psa_7:5; Psa_16:9; Psa_30:12; Psa_57:8).

This Psalm is composed of two Psalms; Psa_105:1-5 being the same as Psa_57:7-11; and Psa_105:6-13 the same as Psa_60:5-12; and it is probably to be referred to the same period as the latter. Psa_68:1

Psa 108:2 Awake (lift up, rise up, arise up), psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early (the dawn in KJV Large print).

H7837; shachar; shakh'-ar; From H7836; dawn (literally, figuratively or adverbially): - day (-spring), early, light, morning, whence riseth.

H7836; shâchar; shaw-khar'; A primitive root; properly to dawn, that is, (figuratively) be (up) early at any task (with the implication of earnestness); by extension to search for (with painstaking): - [do something] betimes, enquire early, rise (seek) betimes, seek (diligently) early, in the morning).

    Metaphorically, the word dawn can refer to the start of the ten year tribulation.

    The new day begins at Sundown when the first 4 stars come out at night and the tribulation began with a sign in the Sun, Moon, and stars (Gen 1:14) in 2007. Then in 2010, we had 5 planets line up in a row on the 7^th day of Feast of Tabernacles.

Psa 108:3 I will praise thee, O LORD/Jehovah, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

Psa 108:4 For thy mercy (loving kindness, grace) is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds/skies.

Psa 108:5 Be thou exalted, O God/El, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

     Notice dawn in verse 2, heavens and skies in verse 4, heavens in verse 5. So we have a Sign on the Special Sabbath of Days of Awe in 2007 which began the 10 year tribulation of Rev 2:10 which ends in 5777/2017 to March of 2018.

Psa 108:6 That thy beloved (beloved ones) may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me. Delivered=deliverance=freedom/liberty/Jubilee

Psa 108:7 God hath spoken in (sworn by) his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete/punish out the valley of Succoth.

     SHECHEM.—The place in which Jacob for a while established himself (Gen_33:18, Joh_4:12). Here he is said to have dug the well coosecrated by Christ’s conversation with the Samaritan woman, and still shown to travellers, with a claim to authenticity which is lacking in the vast majority of the so-called ‘holy places.’ It was evidently a place of sanctity: there was a great oak (or terebinth) here—no doubt a sacred tree—where Jacob hid his teraphim (Gen_35:4), and under which Joshua gave his parting address to the elders (Jos_24:1-33). A great stone under the tree was traditionally connected with the latter event (Jos_24:26). This is no doubt the reason why Shechem was a Levitical city, and also a city of refuge (Jos_20:7). The city, however, remained Canaanite after the conquest, serving the local god Baal-herith (Jdg_9:4): Gideon’s concubine, mother of Abimelech, was a Canaanitess from Shechem, and her relatives set up her son as a king, to his and their own destruction (Jdg_9:1-57). Here Rehoboam alienated the Northern Kingdom by his overhearing speech (1Ki_12:1), and Jeroboam for a time was established here (1Ki_12:25). It was not a place of importance before the Exile, though continuously inhabited down to and after that event (Jer_41:5). The development of the Samaritan nation led to its rise. It was known at this period to the natives by the name Mabortha (Jos. BJ IV. viii. 1), but the name by which it was generally known, after its re-building by Titus Flavins Vespasianus, was Flavia Neapolis, or, more briefly, Neapolis—a name which still persists in the modern Arabic form Nâblus, though usually Roman or Greek names imposed on Palestinian sites have disappeared, the older names persisting.

     In the Byzantine period there was a bishopric at Neapolis, of which we know little—save that the Samaritans in A.D. 474 wounded the bishop, and were in consequence severely punished by the emperor Zeno. The city fell to the Crusaders in 1099, and several churches were there built by them—one of which still survives in part as a mosque. In 1184 it was re-conquered by Saladin. The inhabitants have always been noted for turbulence and lawlessness. Towards the end of the 18th century it was a storm-centre of the inter-tribal wars of the fellahîn, the leader of the district being the notorious Kasim el-Ahmad.

     It is now a town of some 24,000 inhabitants, all Moslems except about 150 Samaritans and 700 Christians. They are concerned in extensive soap manufacture, and in trade in wool and cotton with Eastern Palestine. There are Protestant and Roman Catholic missions, and an important English hospital directed by the Church Missionary Society.

     In or near the town are shown ‘Jacob’s well,’ which, as already said, is not improbably authentic; and a shrine covering the traditional ‘tomb of Joseph,’ the genuineness of which is perhaps less unassailable.

So Shechem by 2018 has become divided.

    SUCCOTH.—A place first mentioned in Gen_33:17, where it is said to have been so called because Jacob, on his return from Haran to Canaan, halting at it after his wrestling with the angel at Penuel, built there ‘booths’ (Heb. succôth) for his cattle. Gideon also, after crossing the Jordan in his pursuit of the Midianites, passed Succoth, and afterwards ‘went up’ to Penuel (Jdg_8:5; Jdg_8:8). The name has not been preserved; and the site is thus matter of conjecture. From the passages quoted and other notices it is clear that it was E. of the Jordan; and it may further be inferred that, while Penuel was close to the Jabbok (Gen_32:22; Gen_32:30 f.), on higher ground than Succoth, and to the E. or S.E. (Jdg_8:5; Jdg_8:8, cf. v. 11), Succoth was on the route between Penuel and Shechem, which would pass most naturally over the ford ed-Dâmiyeh (a little S. of the point at which the Jabbok enters the Jordan), in the territory of Gad (Jordan Territory of today), in a ‘vale’ (Jos_13:27, Psa_60:5),—presumably, therefore, in that part of the Jordan valley through which the Jabbok flows into the Jordan, and which is very fertile. Jacob came from Mizpah (see No. 1 in art. s.v.), which is most naturally to be sought somewhere on the N. or N.E. of the Jebel ‘Ajlun; and any one journeying thence to the ford ed-Dâmiyeh would naturally descend as soon as possible into the Ghôr (or Jordan valley), and join the track which passes along it from N. to S. The rest of Jacob’s route would be consistent and intelligible, if Mahanaim (his last halting-place before Penuel, Gen_32:2) were (say) at Deir ‘Allâ, 4 miles N. of the ford by which the track down the Ghôr crosses the Jabbok, Penuel near where the same track crosses the route from es-Salt to ed-Dâmiyeh (see the map), and Succoth on one of the lower terraces of the Jordan valley (which here sinks from -500 ft. to -1000 ft.), W. of the point just suggested for Penuel, S. of the Jabbok, and in the territory of Gad (Jos_13:27). Whether towns actually stood at or near the sites thus indicated can, of course, be determined only by excavation.

Psa 108:8 Gilead is mine (Jordan/Syria); Manasseh (Syria) is mine; Ephraim (United Kingdom) also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

Majority of Manasseh ended up in the USA after the 12 tribes had scattered. Epraim ended up in the United Kingdom/England.

Psa 108:9 Moab/Jordanians is my washpot; over Edom/Muslims will I cast out my shoe (Psa_60:8); over Philistia/Palestine will I triumph.

In 2018, these countries will become waste lands.

Psa 108:10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

Psa 108:11 Wilt not thou, O God/Elohim, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

Psa 108:12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man/adam.

Psa 108:13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.

2008 was a Shemitah year (Leviticus 25:1-8). Here are the top ten events in 2008 in the USA.

Fed Innovated to Replace a Failed Banking System; Bear Stearns Bailout; Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae Bailout; Lehman Brothers Bankruptcy Triggered Global Recession; Fed Nationalized AIG; Credit Markets Froze; End of Investment Banking; Stock Market Crash.
Obama Won Presidency. Barack Obama won the presidency on November 3, 2008. He promised to provide sorely needed hope to jump start the stalled economy. His proposals helped restore confidence in financial markets. He streamlined regulatory agencies, improved transparency for financial disclosure, and cracked down on manipulative trading activities. His first priority was to pump as much as $800 billion into the economy through tax relief and jobs programs. Once the crisis was resolved, Obama implemented much of his 10 point program. That included more labor and environmental controls on free trade agreements, and health care reform which helped to destroy the Jews in WWI or WWII.
