The title of this particular post ‘The Battle for Our Land Our Inheritance’ involves the spiritual and the tangible world, the UNSEEN and the SEEN realms.
This section follows the word scarlet in the book of Daniel and its connection to the enslavement of mankind.
Mankind is Enslaved by their Scarlet Sin and Chains of Gold
We have considered scarlet through the Law of First Mention, through the use of time and numbers, through its placement in scripture, how it relates to the colors of purple and blue in the Tabernacle in the wilderness, through the Law of the Leper, through the red heifer, through a harlot named Rahab, and through Saul and Jonathan, through the foolish woman and the virtuous woman, through the LOVES of God, and through the woes of beastly man. Yet, there is yet more that the Holy Spirit of God desires us to understand about scarlet.
The book of Daniel is the twenty-seventh book in the Bible. Twenty-seven is the cube of three. (Trivia?) (27 is 3 x 3 x 3 . . . trivia?) NO, there is no such thing as either coincidence or trivia in the word of God. The Sovereignty of God, the Godhead bodily, the spiritual realm in ALL the principalities of the power and majesty of God is played out in this great prophetic book of Daniel. One of the many triple sequences in this book is seen in the word scarlet. Three times this word is documented.
The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. [And] the king spake, and said to the wise [men] of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom. (Daniel 5:7)
And I have heard of thee, that thou canst make interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom. (Daniel 5:16)
Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with scarlet, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.(Daniel 5:29)
Again, I cannot emphasis enough your need to read the book of Daniel. However, for our current study, read at least the first five chapters. Notice that all three times that the word scarlet appears is in the 5th Chapter. (Five, the number of grace.) The phrase third ruler also is mentioned three times and all mentions are in the same chapter, Chapter 5.
Chapter 5 is the great scene of debauchery and blasphemy against the God of heaven and earth. Think of this 5th Chapter as the removal of God’s grace from the people of depravity. Think of Chapter 5 as a prophetic picture of a future wherein the last corrupt and evil government of a one world order is destroyed. Think of Chapter 5 as the culmination of evil, and the final reserved judgment against God QUICKLY and SUDDENLY comes upon the world of blasphemy. The book of Daniel is historical and prophetical. It is about how four Jewish men of God survived their captivity in the land of Babylon and through their survival we are led to understand how the last Babylon will not only take the nation of the Jews captive, but the nations of the world will also be in subject to the last world tyrant, the Beast and to his image. The book of Daniel is divided into two main sections; Chapters 1 through 5 is about Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah also known as Belteshazzar, Shadrack, Meschach, and Abednego. We also are introduced to Nebuchadnezzar through his journey of spiritual understanding. Then in Chapter 5 we see Nebuchadnezzar’s son, Belshazzar, as a type of the last tyrant ruler as the blasphemous beast. Darius the Mede comes into the scene in Chapter 6, and from chapters 7 onward to the end at chapter 12 we have the greatest prophetic revelation given to man equal to the last great revelation in the last revelation in the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Please note that revelation cannot be used enough to describe the book of Daniel. The difficulty in approaching the word scarlet in the book of Daniel is that this one little word is a very small (but not unimportant) word that ties together the word scarlet in the book of the Revelation. The book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ cannot be fully understood without the spiritual comprehension of the book of Daniel. Remember, that it is recorded twice that the Lord Jesus Christ said that Daniel, the prophet, spoke of the abomination of desolation. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) (Matthew 24:15) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: (Mark 13:14) The Lord Himself deliberately directed us to the book of Daniel. Therefore, this book is a witness of the things that must shortly come to pass. Just six chapters in Daniel, yet they span thousands and thousands of years historically and prophetically. Some of the most renown individuals ever to live and reign over the earth are mentioned in Daniel BEFORE they were even born. (They are mentioned not by name BUT they are mentioned by their exploits, and we are able to recognize them because of historical deeds, coups, accomplishments, treaties, and their triumphs and conquests: such as Caesar, Alexander the great, Cleopatra, Antiochus Epiphanes, and many others. Also Daniel wrote of dynasties BEFORE they came into dominance, such as the Roman Empire, the Seleucid Empire, the Persian Empire, and even the Maccabean period.) Therefore, I leave you to read this book of Daniel at your own pace. Now let us pick up the word scarlet and proceed.
Notice when men of renown: tyrants, rulers, and men of renown appoint others to positions of power and authority these positions are ALWAYS given in exchange for compliance and obedience to their wishes. It is ALWAYS connected to gold: not the gold of righteousness but the gold of wealth and the power of authority, the power of rule over others. Three times we have these words repeated in Chapter 5 of Daniel . . . . shall be clothed with scarlet, and [have] a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom . . .
It was the son of Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, who was the last Babylonian king who controlled the scarlet, and the chain of gold. Where was this chain of gold placed? It wasn’t around the waist, nor around the wrist, but it was around the neck . . . symbolic of a slave to the master: the master being, of course, tyrannical government. (Let us dive into ‘wokeness’ once more. Those of the ideology of wokeness have labeled their delusions incorrectly, they are not AWAKE, nor can they SEE for in their WOKENESS they are DEAD to truth. While hating the idea of slavery they have voluntarily become slaves in gross financial indebtedness: owning nothing, possessing nothing, creating nothing, producing nothing, and knowing nothing. Wokeness is a creation of government to control the bodies, the minds and the souls of dead men fantasizing that they are alive in WOKENESS. Mankind has become slaves to the real owners of their credit cards, slaves to their religions, slaves to all forms of AI, and slaves to the lusts of their imaginations.) While tyrants and rulers place scarlet and gold chains around the necks of their slaves, the Lord Jesus Christ said in Matthew 11:29 and 40, Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke [is] easy, and my burden is light. It is through Christ alone that the chained ones are set free from the bondage of sin and death.
Slavery is NOT a new thing, nor have the descendants of Ham been the only victims of slavery, but since the very beginning of man’s history, man has enslaved other men not because of color, but because he can. Isaiah, through the Holy Spirit, wrote in Chapter 52, verse 2, Shake thyself from the dust; arise, [and] sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion. The nation of Israel was enslaved for seventy years by Babylon, but through the Spirit of God working through Cyrus the king of Persia, and Artaxerxes king of Persia the people who had been held as slaves to a foreign government were gradually released and returned back to what remained of Israel.
In the 5th Chapter of the book of Lamentations, the Spirit of God unveils not only the consequences of the sin of Israel, but through these profound words we are led to understand how slavery has overtaken most of the nations of the world TODAY. As you read through verses 1 – 6 apply them to your nation and how you are now slaves to aliens and strangers because your rulers have turned your inheritance over to those who own them. (Lamentations 5:1)
Remember, O LORD, what is come upon us: consider, and behold our reproach. (Lamentations 5:1)
Our inheritance is turned to strangers, our houses to aliens. (Lamentations 5:2)
We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows. (Lamentations 5:3)
We have drunken our water for money; our wood is sold unto us. (Lamentations 5:4)
Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest. (Lamentations 5:5)
We have given the hand to the Egyptians, and to the Assyrians, to be satisfied with bread. (Lamentations 5:6)
Our fathers have sinned, and are not; and we have borne their iniquities. (Lamentations 5:7)
Practically every nation on this planet is in a battle about land and inheritance. I believe that the majority of the citizens of the United States are still not yet aware that we are currently in a battle about our land and our inheritance. (In fact, most Americans are not aware of anything!) This unawareness is mainly because of the government’s control over ‘news.’ If people cannot see the truth of the present, how will they see the truth behind the present? When you want to understand the present you must understand the past. When you want to understand the SEEN you must understand the UNSEEN. ALL tangible earthly matters and issues FIRST BEGAN in the heavenly spiritual supernatural realm of God. This is a principle to always remember.
Side Note: A Summary of the battle for land and inheritance. The first battle in the WAR against the Godhead bodily in the supernatural kingdom can be summarized as the battle against land and inheritance. The land being God’s kingdom, and the inheritance being God’s extension of His divine love to His creation. When the battle flowed over into the tangible world, and BEFORE sin, the ‘land’ was the earth and the ‘inheritance’ became Adam’s as his rightful position to rule over as the Federal Head of the earth. AFTER sin, the ‘land’ and the ‘inheritance’ were both usurped by Lucifer/Satan. After Abraham, the ‘land’ became a specific territory, and the ‘inheritance’ became the land of promise, and the inheritance. After the sacrifice of Christ on Calvary, the ‘land’ was and is the unseen promised home for the people of faith, and the ‘inheritance’ is everlasting life, and the righteousness and crown of glory, and being conformed to the image of God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. ♦ End of Side Note: A Summary of the battle for land and inheritance.
