Opening: The Lance Wallnau Show is coming at you live from the Master himself with a special broadcast taken from one of Lance’s most recent appearances. Tune in and get ready for some major revelation!
Lance: Many people, I’m always amazed. I still am entertained at this stage of my life that I’m introduced by the style of basically everywhere I go, people say, “How many of you have never heard of Lance?” Just as I put your hand, let me just see. I couldn’t see. How many of you have never heard me speak week before? Thank you. Look at that. Look at that. That’s so depressing. Thank you! Thank you for that. And I think that somewhere well, here’s what I’m going to do. At first, I was a little overwhelmed.
To be honest with you, because I said to myself, I was just in these like mega-churches in San Diego, and they give you like 20 minutes or so. 25 minutes, 30 minutes. Great churches, but they have multiple services. So I have like 30 minutes to say something, a word from God, which is not easy to do. Now, a Super Bowl commercial is millions of dollars for 30 seconds. But when it comes to, like, preaching, for some reason, we can’t figure out how in 30 minutes to say something.
And now, then, I have the reverse problem here. I thought, which is, well, if you got two segments in like 45 or 50 minutes, what am I going to talk about? Which is a different type of thing. But I got so much, I don’t know what to say. So I’m going to do something with you that I’m going to pray a prayer right now. And it’s I noticed that Jordan Peterson did something for me. Have you ever heard of Jordan Peterson? Well, thank God! See, you heard of him. How can we even know about me?
Anyway, so Jordan, who I love, is I actually got to meet with Jordan. I gave him my testimony. We had a great conversation. The thing with Jordan that I love is one; he shattered the myth that you can’t have in-depth, long conversations with people because, you know, instead of the 20 minutes out of it, he’ll have like an hour, an hour, and a half, 2 hours, 3 hours. Joe Rogan and him, for instance, you know, you can go for a couple of hours.
And that’s true. You can’t. You can go for a long time. Listen, if the subject has life in it, and the way that Jordan describes it is he’s having a conversation, and he’s kind of like moving towards the creative envelope of where the conversation is wanting to go. That’s illuminating something. It’s really a gift. He’s a teacher. He’s anointed teacher. And he goes to the edge of consciousness, integrating what he’s thinking with the audience and then moving into the next territory.
So when he traveled around the world, every lecture he gave was different because he was feeling where the audience was and dealing spontaneously with what was in him. He pays a great price for what he believes. So he’s not doing it as a business. He’s doing it as living ethically out of the overflow of his own battle against the devil as he now sees it. So that’s the first thing is that people can endure a conversation if God’s in it. We don’t have to become addicted as our children are becoming dictated, as many of us are, to this and beware of this, this reprogramming that’s happening all around you to have to go quickly and immediately from subject to subject to subject to sub thinking you’re covering more when in fact, it’s dumbing you down.
It’s causing you to have a sugar high, and you need to have more sugar. You’re not getting protein. You’re just getting addicted to the manipulation of sound bites and clickbait and, and, and you could go a long time on the body, you know, hours a day, trolling around on YouTube channels, listening to your favorite preachers or teachers and such, and find out that you’ve spent hours doing stuff but not growing. You don’t know that. But you know, if you could see yourself in a picture, you’d be like a 60 year old man in a kindergarten desk sitting there. If you walk by the classroom, the Bible says, “By now, you yourself ought to be teachers of others. You need to be taught again the first things”.
And the church, in many ways, with COVID included, developed a bad diet of going to inspirational prophetic theoreticians who engage you spellbinding ways about what’s going on politically, what’s going on with the country, what’s going with the culture, what’s going on the spirit. And I’m telling you something, after a couple of years when you yourself should be able to teach others, many have actually got their 60 year olds stuck at a little desk because they’re not growing, they’re not outgrowing anything. They’re basically stuck in a stage of learning and not arriving at any conclusions. So there’s a danger right now.
My second is that not only can people handle the conversation a little longer, but we don’t have to dumb it down. We can raise it up. What Peterson did that I always admired is he talks to his students and other people as though they’re smart. If he says, “Dustyesky said this and so and so”, I haven’t read Dustyvsky, but I know he has, and I know it’s a Russian, and I know the guy was a genius or a writer. And I said, “You start looking it up”. And so he just talks at you as though you’re a peer. He doesn’t talk down to you like see, spot, run. And I think that there’s something to that. I think to a great extent, preaching in an effort to try to make things relative and relevant has gone down to the level of people’s appetites and aspirations instead of just talking up and saying, “Let’s have the conversation at this level”.
So if you don’t mind, I’m going to talk to you as though you’re all theologically educated and biblically literate. And I know I’m going to bring up subjects that even my own friends and peers and ministry kind of don’t know a lot of because they haven’t read the Bible recently in this area. But I’m going to go ahead and talk to that way. So, for instance, let’s start with a curious kind of Bible verse, Ezekiel, chapter 44, want you to take a look at this. Go. If you got a Bible, you should have a Bible. Bibles are better than digital devices, by the way.
Why do I say that? Well, actually, there’s a study to this, and there’s something about your ability to write, underline, highlight and interact with a text, which I know someone will say you can highlight a digital thing, but there’s something different. You have a track record here of your history with a text, and it kind of like marks. It’s like marking a journey. It’s like love letters where you’re banking notes in the margin. Anyway, so we take a look at Ezekiel, chapter 44, and something strange is happening here. You read these unusual chapters in the Bible where it talks about the gates and the dimensions of the gates, and who comes in. It’s like, what difference does it make? Well, Ezekiel is a crazy prophet. He’s almost like a hallucinogenic prophet. He is probably the wildest prophet in the Bible. Word of knowledge prophets like Elijah they’re scary because they hear God, they say something, and boom, bears come out of the woods or fire comes down from heaven. But with Ezekiel he’s almost like a psychedelic prophet.
He’s going up into visions and dreams and being carried into the spirit realm and spying on people and seeing things that demons are doing. He’s a way out there prophet, and he’s writing this way out here whole text. Now he is in a sweep of judgment that is overtaken. Northern Israel got southern Israel Jerusalem, Judah Judea northern Israel. The Assyrians came and wiped out northern Israel. They were evidently more irritating to God than the Jews in the south. The Jews in the south lasted a little longer. Nebuchadnezzar came and wiped them out.
But north and south, the whole nation had walked away from God, and God gave them phases and stages of judgment. You would think that north and Israel going off into Syria and being taken over would have been sobering enough, and you had the Babylonian empire rising up and taking everybody. Well, Ezekiel was one of those prophets who got caught up, unfortunately, like Daniel in a country that was under judgment, but they were walking with God. And it’s kind of hard for you.
American Christian right now to figure out where you’re at, I’m going to tell you. You start reading Daniel and Ezekiel. You might feel more at home because you are the Christians that are trying to ardently walk with God with a pure heart like a Daniel or an Ezekiel, and a nation that seems to be constantly getting a spanking and not learning the lesson. So what happens when you got a child that doesn’t take your discipline, your time out and then defies you and keeps defying? You know what happens?
The discipline gets more severe. Does that make sense? Okay, so these verses here about the East gate and the princes coming and the temple is all literal for them and spiritual for you because otherwise, there’s no benefit to you. First of all, he didn’t have a physical temple. He’s giving dimensions to a temple that didn’t even exist. He’s giving very specific details. So when you read this note that he’s not talking about the temple they actually built. He’s talking about a millennial temple, a temple that hasn’t yet been built, and he’s giving instruction about how it’s being designed as a prophet.
He’s giving details as to how it’s going to operate. So it must be that he’s talking about the house of God with lessons for you and me, who are Ezekiels in a nation experiencing stages and phases of divine discipline. We know not how far it’s going to go. We kind of cling to our favorite hopes and favorite preachers on it’s all going to turn around. But in the meantime, until the issue is resolved, you are Daniel, you are Ezekiel. There’s a chapter in the book, and there’s a person for you to walk victoriously through whatever season of life God put you here to walk through. And it’s not your fault if other people make dumb decisions. In other words, if you’ve got people that make stupid decisions, politically or otherwise, your job is to be faithful, to walk with God and stay in the Holy Ghost and bear fruit because he puts you on the Earth at this time for this season. He didn’t put you on the Earth in the 70s or 60s. It is your time right now. So here’s what I want.
I want to get into this real fast. And so he goes, he’s getting this instruction here, and I’ll just kind of read it to you. Verse 4, “He brought me by the way of the north gate to the front of the temple.And as I look, remember, here he goes. He’s like in one of his crazy, like almost psychedelic mushroom prophecy trips. He’s out there now, taken out of his body, flying around the imaginary temple of the future. He brought me by the way of the north gate to the front of the temple. And as I looked and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord, and I fell on my face”. How many of you want to have that? Ezekiel gift. Woo. That’s where I want to go. And the Lord said to me, “Celebrate Mark Well. See with your eyes and hear with your ears all that I say to you concerning all the ordinances of the house of the Lord and all its laws”. Mark well, who may enter the house, and who will go out from the sanctuary? Whoo!
He’s in the Holy Ghost supernatural vision of a house filled with glory, the supernatural future church. He’s getting details on who comes in and who goes out. Is this interesting yet? Now say to the rebellious to the house of Israel. Thus says the Lord God, “O house of Israel, let us have no more of all your abominations when you were brought in when you brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary, to defile it My house. And when you offered My food, the fat, and the blood, you broke My covenant because of Your abominations. And you’ve not kept charge of My holy things, but you’ve set others to keep charge of My sanctuary for you”.
Thus says, “The Lord God, no foreigner uncircumcised in heart or uncircumcised in flesh shall enter My sanctuary, including any foreigner who is among the children of Israel”. This is kind of an interesting argument God’s making. He’s saying there are people who don’t belong in certain places, occupying places and shaping his church. He’s saying there are people who have no business. And what does uncircumcised mean? Uncircumcised in heart, uncircumcised in ear.Now, you know what circumcision is? You’re adult here. It’s the cutting away of the foreskin of the flesh on the male reproductive organ. Therefore, what’s the big deal? What’s God’s obsession with the genitals? It’s because it’s an ear. It’s a hearing and a heart thing. He’s talking about God’s so earthy. I mean, sometimes think it’s kind of funny. He made sex, he made anatomy. He knows all about the subject.
And we treat it prudently, like we’re somehow treading on dangerous, dirty here’s the deal. This whole religion is based on cutting the foreskin of a male reproductive organ. That’s not easy for Evangelism. I’ll tell you that. “Hey, everybody here. All you men, come up. You’re feeling conviction right now. Come on up here and go, rabbi Schmaltz over here sharpened his blades. He’s ready to bring into the new church”. Hold on a second! Let me check this Hindu belief out here. What do you believe? “Oh, lots of goddesses. Goddesses six with prostitutes? Oh, I don’t know”. So the fact of the matter is the male reproductive organ is where life comes from. That’s how life comes from the male into the female, till modern biology and science in school confused it. That’s how it’s always worked.
So what God is saying is the reproductive capacity of My word and My priesthood, and My people must not be contaminated by the flesh, which is man’s will, man’s desires, man’s uncleanness man, fallen man is not going to be able to produce a divine result. Therefore, you’ve got to cut away the flesh, the carnality, the tendency of the human condition to collapse into its own world of getting what it wants. It must be a place where it’s cut away, uncircumcised in heart and ear means you deal with the fit you have, discerning of that which is appealing to you as a fallen human being and that which you know is the way that God wants you to go. Does that make sense to you? That’s why in the beginning of the Gospel of John, it says, “You know, that which is born of God, god because there’s that which is born of the will of man, that which is born of the will of flesh and that which is born of God”. Interesting!
That which is born of man. Is it good work? Like the Red Cross, the Boy Scouts, not to say it was a divine institution. No! Is it good work that men came up with, like roads and engineering and cell phones, a good work? What’s born of the will of the flesh is pornography on the cell phone, child trafficking, and things that are sinful. But what’s born of God, it’s not born of man or of the flesh. It’s by the initiative of the Holy Spirit, meaning God put it into man to do it. So there are three kinds of births. The circumcised heart cuts away that which is from me, that is me, but not God. That which is from the devil trying to work through me, which is not God, and that which is actually God.
Does that make sense? And if you look back in your history, you’ll see sometimes you were led by the Spirit. Sometimes you were led by the flesh. And he thought it was the Spirit, and he realized later that wasn’t a very good thing to do. I think there were times when my wife said, which is, unfortunately, I’m going to fuel this argument now, I should probably not do this with her here, but times she said, don’t do that. And I felt like I was right, and I did it. And later on, I realized she was right and I shouldn’t have done it. See, that was my flesh thinking I was hearing from God, but she was hearing from God. And probably, and here’s where most men fail. Because I knew more about the subject matter, I thought I was better qualified to make the decision. But, you see, God was talking to her not because she knew the subject matter but because she knew God’s voice.
And I got more millionaire and billionaire buddies of mine or friends of mine. I want to imply more than I actually do, but I mean, I have several of them that will tell me their wives and the intercessors are the secret sauce behind their decision-making because many times with their knowledge of what they were doing, were about to get into a decision that would have cost them dearly. But their wife and the intercessors gave them a word of caution on it, and they learned, learned to listen to them because they heard God. So what I’m saying is there is that which is born of the flesh and that which is born of the spirit. Right now, we’re in a battle to be able in the church to be able to discern what is God and what is not God. And we’re going to have to raise this. I’m going to hit this very quickly. I got to go there fast.
So now, the law of who goes in the sanctuary, remember, the issue here is circumcised and uncircumcised. But now you know what it’s talking about. The ability to discern what is of God and what is of man or what is of the devil is of paramount importance when it comes to the house that’s filled with God’s glory. Right? The Levites who went far from me, OOH verse 10. This is interesting. The Levites who went for the Levites are the priests and the teachers. The Levites who went far from me when Israel went to stray, who strayed from Me after their idols shall bear their iniquity, yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary as gatekeepers of the house and ministers of the house.
They’ll slay the burn, offering the sacrifice. The people sacrifice for the people. They’ll stand before them because they minister to them before their idols and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity. Therefore I have raised my hand in an oath against them. Says the Lord God, “They shall bear their iniquity. They shall not come near Me to minister to me as a priest, nor come near any of my holy things, nor unto my holy place, but they shall bear their shame and their abominations, which they’ve committed. Nevertheless, I will make them keep charge of the temple for its work and for all that has to be done in it”. Now, let me just say something. This is going to grub raw a lot of teaching.
What you’re looking at here is the word of God is telling you that “God is not necessarily saying because of sin you can’t be in. He’s limiting your access to what you get access to because of your sin”. Now, you’re not going to like that because no Christians like hearing that. But I’m trying to tell you why in the Bible, it talks about various levels of reward in heaven, various levels of glory in the age to come. I know in our egalitarian, almost Marxist Christian worldview we think everybody’s equal. But in heaven, there are different levels of glory. There’s a different outcome. That’s why each judgment is individual and each one, in a sense.
Remember what mother of John and James, one master “I want that my boys consider your right hand and your left hand in the kingdom”. Why? Because the mother of these boys, as a Jew, knew the proximity to the Messiah had to do with status and prestige in his kingdom. And Jesus didn’t argue with her and say, “That’s a crazy metaphor. It’s not like that”. He would tell you if you were wrong about the age to come, but in this case, he didn’t say, “It’s not like that”. He said, “It is like that”. But it’s not my decision to make. It’s my father’s. My father determines rank and insignia or rank and proximity in the age to come to the king.
Paul understood this. He was looking towards the reward that was going to be at the judgment seat of Christ, not the reward that was coming in this age. Does that make sense to you? I’m saying that because this is like a weird scripture here. It’s saying, “The Levites that failed the test of discerning me are still my people, and they love me, but they screwed up over here. Nevertheless, they will still be in my century, but they will not be the ones that come up to me at this level in my holy place. There’s the outer court, then there’s the inner court. They still have access to the court. They’re not my enemies, but they’re not going to be ministering to my people on behalf of what I have to say. Only those that are in my immediate entourage will be authorized to speak on my behalf”.
So listen to me with your spirit now. Don’t let your head go tilt. Listen to me. I’m taking you somewhere here. They shall not come near me. Verse 13 as a priest, “Nor come near any of my holy things, in the most holy place. They have certain access, but it’s kind of like going to a government building. You got access, and you’re denied access to this part of the Pentagon, but you have access to all the other offices”. Well, someone’s got to make a decision to upgrade your clearance to have access. That’s the whole Biden thing and Trump thing they’ve got now with boxes. It’s there’s stuff that was supposed to be only special access that was in their garage. That’s what the whole thing is about. It’s about access and privilege of who could see and know certain stuff. This is God’s scenario on how that works in heaven.
Now watch this, “But I will make them keep charge of my temple for all its work. I’m still going to have them in the sacred role of being in charge of my house. They are ministers of mine, and I endorse them as such. But there’s a limit to their access to what I’m saying”. Now we come to wouldn’t you like to know who gets access? Would you like to know what priesthood gets to go in and hear what God is saying? Watch this. Verse 15, “But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went to stray for me, they shall come near to me. They will minister to me. They will stand before me to offer me the fat and the blood”. Since you guys are talking about this month on worship, I want you to hear. You want to be a church that has the seal of Zadok on it. Because then your worship isn’t just outer court worship; it’s throne room worship, where you’re going to hear and decree what God is saying.
But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zeta see, I love teaching this because I’m a Levite. I’m an Ashkenazi Jew from my father’s side. I am a Levitical Messianic Jewish person on my father’s side with rabbis. I’m telling you what the Levites that are Pentecostal would teach today, “that some of us have compromised in ways we are not aware of that has cost us access to the downloads we long to hear. And you’re not going to get them just by running around to your favorite prophet to go hear it, because your ear has to be unsealed and uncircumcised to hear. And if you’ve got an uncircumcised ear or an uncircumcised heart, I don’t care if you’re in the presence of an uncircumcised prophet, you can’t hear what God is saying”. “But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of my century and the children of Israel went astray for me, they shall come near to me, to minister to Me, and they shall stand before Me to offer me the fat and the blood”, says the Lord. Genuine worship!
“They shall enter my sanctuary. They shall come near My table to minister to Me, and they shall keep My charge”. And it will be whenever they enter the gates of the Inner Court, they shall put on linen garments. No wool shall come upon them while they minister within the gates of the Inner Court or within that’s. Why no wool? Because this is a ministry that, in a sense, is a no sweat ministry. God doesn’t want your human labor, your human exertion, your human trauma, your human drama. It’s linen, meaning it’s a no sweat service. You’re supposed to minister out of the Spirit, to the Spirit. They shall have linen turbines on their heads, linen trousers on their bodies. They shall not clothe themselves with anything that causes sweat.
It’s right there, Verse 18, “God wants you to enter a no sweat season of ministry. When they go out to the outer core, to the people, they shall take off their Garments which they’ve ministered, leave them in the holy chambers, put on the other garments, and in their holy garments they shall not sanctify the people. They shall neither shave their heads nor let their hair grow long, but they shall keep their hair well-trimmed. No priest shall drink wine when he comes into the inner court. You shall not take as a wife or widow”. And he goes on with various specificities regarding the priest. Once again, the Old Testament Jew is hearing one thing, but you that are part of the new covenant priesthood of Levites, this is all spiritual language here.
What does it mean? They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the unholy and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean and in controversy. These are the ones that I’ve raised up as judges. We’re going to have a lot of controversies in the coming days because, I’m telling you, the church is going to get shaken just like anything else with all kinds of winds of doctrine. But in the midst of them, there will be voices that are judging things rightly.
They will be the Zadok priesthood that has circumcised their heart and their ear to hear what the Spirit says and are not ministering out of their flesh. And when it comes to this priesthood, it shall be verse 28, “in regard to their inheritance that I am the inheritance of the Levite, you shall give them no possession, Israel. I am their possession. They shall eat the grain offering, the sin offering, the trespass offering. Every dedicated thing in Israel should be theirs. The best of all first fruits of any kind and every sacrificed or any kind from your sacrifices shall be the priests.Give it to them. The first of your ground to cause a blessing to rest on your house”.
Here’s what I want to say. I’ve read all that. We took some time to do that. But it’s important to lay the foundation for what we want to do from here on out. There is Old Testament, and New Testament are actually highly relevant. It’s not like the Old Testament doesn’t fit. And I’m telling you, Ezekiel is the wild prophet of all prophets because he’s in this supernatural, futuristic temple of God talking about priests. And it’s all meant for the discerning ear of the end time Christian to say, “What’s he talking about? How does this apply to me?” God wants you to read this. It’s in the Bible, and it’s cool. It’s like going to the Book of Revelation from another window. It’s sneaking into the end-time revelation. Here’s what he’s saying.
He’s saying, “Zadok was one priesthood that passed the test when all of Israel went to stray. The Sons of Zadok“. This is very important. The priest, verse 15, “But the priests of Levi, the sons of Zadok, who kept charge of my century when the children of Israel went astray, they shall come near to realize that the American church could be going astray right now. But there are those that are sensing something ain’t right, and they’re seeking God. They’re the Sons of Zadok”. It’s like my friend Eric Matakis writes about Dietrich. Bonheoffer, Dietrich Bonheoffer knew the church was going off his National Socialist when Hitler was rising.
He knew they were going off, and he alone was saying something’s not right, something’s not right. But he was preaching against the grain, he was rubbing against the current, he was entering cancel culture territory, and he ended up a martyr. But in retrospect, he was a son of Zadok, and history said, “He was right. And the compromising pastors in Germany were all wrong”. But at his time, there was a controversy, and he stayed faithful. Okay, so let’s talk about our history, biblical literacy. What happened with Zadok? Well, this is curious. Zadok and David were friends. David had a couple of prophets around him, and the prophets were ministered to him. It’s great to have this reliance of prophets and government, which is one reason why the devil hates Christians being involved with politics because in the Bible, from the Old Testament to the New Testament, proximity is power. And the higher up you are in government, the more the devil tries to influence you.
Therefore, you need to have strong Christians praying for you and in proximity to you, to speak to you what you need to hear. So all those people that are all picking on me and fighting with people like me because we get in my politics, how he got off on Trump, I’m actually a Zadok. I’m willing to say I do miss it. I do get in the flesh. But it’s my ability to judge myself that keeps me smart. So who’s going to speak a word to these people in power when they need to govern and don’t have a prophet? David had Zadok. David had priests, Abiathar. David had been an eye. He had various prophets and priests that would give him the word of the Lord. So David had to do administrator, he had to do wars, he had to build a kingdom. And he listened to Godly counsel that came from the right voices.
Here’s the point. When David had a test in his kingdom and Absalom rebelled, Absalom a son of David, and David’s house rose up. Beautiful, enhanced articulate, long flowing hair, a younger, more appealing Instagram version of the aging David. And he sat at the gates. Great metaphor for a place of influence and absolute sat at the gates. And at the gates, he listened to people’s problems, and he convinced everyone who had a problem that he really cared about them. And he wished there was something he could do about it because clearly the administration, the government, the Church is missing it. But I know what the truth is, and I’m on your side.
So this is a form of priesthood ministry or manipulator, who sits at the gate of influence, whoconvinces you, and they have a lot in common, and it’s your problem, is that they aren’t more recognized and influential because the system is corrupt. So I’m not one of those knocking the Church and knocking government all the time, as though there’s some kind of a universal thing wrong with the Church because the Church could be right or the Church could be wrong. Government can be godly, or government can be unguided. It’s not the Church and government that are the problem, it’s the leadership in those places. So Absolut would seduce you? Yeah, you really do have a problem there. If I was the king, here’s what I would do. So he planted a rebellion in the hearts of the people. That’s why along while Sydney James was talking about Leviathan and what do we have. We have Jezebel and Leviathan and various other spirits that are loose. This is a church that is a tolerance.
We’re talking about the demonic principalities and powers. Absalom is the seducing spirit. It shows up in counterfeit prophets and counterfeit apostles. They come off like angels of light, but in fact they are manipulating you into a kind of a seduced alliance with them. While they talk, they’re mesmerizing you into unity with them so that they kind of like enchant you into being part of their movement and their following. Now Absalom rises up and rebels against David. Well, it almost tore David’s king right off the throne, almost destroyed his kingdom. But at that point, Abiathar, the priest, and Zadok, the priest, both stood with David, and David said, “Thank you for your loyalty. We’re going to have to leave Jerusalem. The rebellion is very strong, and if God wills, we’ll prevail”. They left Jerusalem. Abdulm comes in triumphant. David conspires with Abiathar and Zadok.
He says, “Hey Zadok, why don’t you stay behind?” You stay behind and say you’re with. This is almost like The Godfather if you think about it. The way David is a bit like Don Corleone in several ways. It’s a weird thing, but you have to catch really what I’m saying to understand us. He says stay like Corleone would say, “You keep your friends close, but your enemy is closer”. It was like a weird quote from The Godfather, but it’s a weird piece of information. What it means is, Zadok, plant yourself with my son and tell him I missed it, I’m old, and you’re with the new movement, and get back to me what they’re saying and, if possible, earn some power there to be an advisor and keep them from totally destroying me if possible.
So Zadok stays behind in Jerusalem as a double agent, and so he’s going to be in the counterfeit government, in the Woke Corporation, behind enemy lines, talking to the move of God that is being attacked. And while they’re sitting there, Absalom is going to go after, is going to go after David, he’s going to take him out, and he’s got a military plan which is going to wipe out David.
And Zadok throws a curveball in and says, oh, I wouldn’t do that if I was you. Your dad’s an experienced warrior. You think he’s going to fall for that kind of setup? He’s going to be doing this and that. He’s going to outmaneuver you at that point, absent goes, yeah, you’re right. It’s interesting!
He listened to Zadok’s advice, and Zadok derailed the nuclear attack that would have taken David out. Well, at the end of the day, Absalom dies in combat, killed off. Abayafar, Zadok, Beninaya, Joey, they all passed the test of rebellion, and God promoted them. The kingdom comes back in increases in strength, they all increase in glory. Time goes by. If that was the only test they had to do, this chapter wouldn’t be written. But another test is coming, and they’re going to screw up. The Levites will mess up on this one. The next test comes along. David is aging. He’s in bed with Abbas Shags, who’s like a human hot water bottle. He’s old. And in the inactivity of David, Adonijah, the firstborn of David, decided that it’s his turn to be king.
Well, Adonijah has Joab, the head of the military that defeated Abdulm A Baathar, the head of the priesthood that runs the temple. And they get together with Adonijah and realize that the new move of God, the new thing coming, is going to be them with this. And Adonijah has a big gathering of all his new administration 50 trumpeters, which is a symbol of Pentecost 50 days. So it’s 50 is a false anointing. And the trumpeters, Harold Boom, the false anointing of the false proclamation for the false political movement, which is now taking off, passed the Absolut test. The Abiathar test is where the military, Joe ABB, screwed up and Abiathar, the priest, screwed up.
But Zadok, strangely enough, wasn’t invited to the party because those guys knew who might not be with them. So they weren’t invited to the conference to speak because they might not go over this. So Zadok goes to Bashiba and to another prophet, Ben and I, and they go, did not our Lord aged and in bed with a hot water bottle? We know, but didn’t he say that Solomon was going to be king? That out of his humiliation with Bashiba, out of that sin, that chapter of his life where he screwed up, where he repented, did not God promise him he would redeem him out of that screw-up and put a child on the throne and that Solomon would be king? With Solomon, the old man’s too old to rule, and Solomon’s too young.
Let’s put it this way. As one generation of generals is fading off the scene, you see the Jack Hayfords die and the David Wilkers die. The old guard go, it’s unfortunate, but we have an aging kind of stewardship of the previous moves of God. Peter Wagner was what brought us together, and they’re aging. They’re aging out. And so there’s a younger generation, but it really is not formed well for its apostolic assignment. We haven’t really done it. It’s just not fully developed. It’s like an eight. It’s like a child taking on the dragon and his strength. Solomon’s too young, but nevertheless, young or not, he’s the one that God has chosen to administrate the kingdom. So what you got is this strange kind of parallel.
I think it’s very similar to where we are now, but I’m trying not to read too much into it. I’ll just tell you this. Zadok goes to Bathsheba and says, “Didn’t the boss say your son was supposed to be king?” She says, “Yes”, he did say, “My son Solomon would be king”. He said, “I think it’s going to be good for Solomon because the moment Adonijah gets on the throne, he’s going to kill you, kill Solomon because that’s how they do it in the Middle East. You kill off your rivals because rivals are just going to it’s Middle East, it’s like you’re going to have armies in civil war, so you got to take out your rivals”. It’s almost like that right now. Political parties in South America. Why do you think Bolsonaro is in Florida instead of in Brazil? Because he knows Lula and the Communists will try to imprison him on trumped-up corruption charges and execute him in prison because that’s how they play.
Unless they’re restrained by the hand of God in the populist movement or something, my point is this. Zadok passes the test. He says, “Absalom was wrong, and Adonijah is wrong. Solomon is who you anointed”. So they set up this orchestration, and they go into David, and they go to David, hey, boss. Oh, king David. And then Ben and I goes in. Did you say that Solomon is supposed to be king? And he wakes up. He says, “Yeah”. And then Zeta comes in and says, “Didn’t you say that?” So they orchestrated it. It was a messaging campaign. Then you read it. Then, Nathan, the prophet, goes in and says, “Did you say that Nathan? I’m a prophet, right? I wasn’t invited to the party over there. Zadok wasn’t either. Were you?” No. And he was. I think there’s a rebellion going on, boss. Then Bashiba. They go, Come on. Then she comes in, “Oh, my Lord, remember me? We had a baby together.” Okay? Didn’t you say, Solomon? And now the old man is like, “Wait a second”. Spirit of God comes back on him, clears his head. He goes, Getme my staff and my robe. Put me back on the throne. He goes on the throne.
He says, “I said, Solomon and his king. Boom. Solomon and his king. I’m retiring”. Went back to bed with the water bottle. Now, at that moment, Adonijah Joe Abb, the whole rebellion is done. And David gives some advice to his son Solomon, almost like Don Corleone to Michael. He says, “now you realize you’re going to have to take care of your enemies”. You can’t afford to reconcile with them because they’ll speak peace to save their neck, but they’ll kill you because you’re their only hope. They got to take you out. So you’re a wise man. You’ll know what to do. Solomon young guy, wisdom of God. The only thing he could do is take so Joe AB; he’s got to take out the head of the military coup you read. I’m telling you, this book is more fascinating than you think. So they got to send a guy after Joe Abb to go kill him. And Jo Abb goes to the horns of the altar.
He knows God does it. He’s made a big mistake. He’s holding on to the altar. He’s thinking, if I can get really close to the church, maybe they won’t kill me. They killed him at the altar. That’s what they did. But the fact of the matter is, Zadok, this is what the prophet is talking about here. If you don’t know your history, he’s saying, “Zadok kept charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray and when the Levites who went far from me, the Abiathar part of the priesthood blew it when the political test came on the nation”.
Lance: You know, what’s happening with Putin and Ukraine is actually having an effect not directly on our energy, the way Biden says, but it is having an effect on food because so much of the wheat that comes into Europe and into the Middle East and in the United States comes out of Ukraine. And so much of the fertilizer that we need comes from that region as well. And so farmers aren’t going to be using fertilizer, and that means that the crops aren’t going to be there.
And that’s when Joe Biden says that there really is going to be some food shortage. I mean, I don’t make you worry because these guys very seldom tell you the truth. So what we’re doing right now is we’re really doubling down on making sure that we have an adequate supply of food for our family, a three month supply.
And I’m taking $150 off of that three month emergency supply right now at my Patriots. So go to Lancewallnau.com/patriot and do what my family is doing. We’re getting a three month supply. We’re preparing ourselves. We’re getting the saving $150 now, and we’re getting the variety of breakfast, lunch, dinners, drinks, snacks. Everything is like a 2000 calorie a day account. And I’m even looking at this honey powder. They got this stuff last 25 years. But you can sprinkle some of that honey powder on because even for the desserts, I like to make them a little sweet. But anyway, go to Lancewallnau.com/patriot and do what we’re doing. Give yourself peace of mind and prepare for the future. The wise man sees trouble, the Bible says, and prepares.
