In November, 2021, I was just finishing the Book of Daniel and read Daniel 12:11-12. As I thought about what I was reading, it seemed really obvious to me that what I was reading was a verbal timeline. Event number one: the taking away of the daily sacrifice. Event number two: 1290 days (years) later – the abomination that causes desolation is set up. Event number three: the blessing of those who are waiting at the end of 1335 days (years). As I thought about these verses, a picture came to mind of the Dome of the Rock which sits on the site of the holy Temple of YHWH on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. The thought I had was: “what could be more abominable to YHWH than a shrine to the god of Islam sitting on His holy mountain?”
I became curious and wondered when the Dome of the Rock had been completed. I searched the internet and the date I found was 692 AD. I subtracted the 1290 years from that date which gave me 598 BC. I again searched looking for anything of significance that would have happened in Israel at around that time.
“The Lord said, “I will remove Judah also from My sight, as I have removed Israel. And I will cast off Jerusalem, this city which I have chosen, and the temple of which I said, ‘My name shall be there.’ ”” (2 Kings 23:27)
“At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon went up to Jerusalem, and the city came under siege. And Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came to the city, while his servants were besieging it. Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he and his mother and his servants and his captains and his officials. So the king of Babylon took him captive in the eighth year of his reign. He carried out from there all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, just as the Lord had said. Then he led away into exile all Jerusalem and all the captains and all the mighty men of valor, ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. None remained except the poorest people of the land. So he led Jehoiachin away into exile to Babylon; also the king’s mother and the king’s wives and his officials and the leading men of the land, he led away into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. All the men of valor, seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths, one thousand, all strong and fit for war, and these the king of Babylon brought into exile to Babylon.” (2 Kings 24:10–16, 598 BC)
During the siege, the priests were able to get kosher animals for sacrifice at a great price from the Roman soldiers. At one point, the soldiers no longer provided the animals for sacrifice. In addition, the temple articles were taken to Babylon. The daily sacrifice was interrupted. The criteria for event number one were fulfilled.
If my reasoning was correct, than we should have much reason to hope that we are indeed in the last of the last days! 692 AD + 1335 years = 2027. My heart just lit up! Oh that Yeshua of Nazareth, Messiah and rightful King would return that soon! What a wonderful answer to our prayer: “thy kingdom come”!
We are in desperate need of hope in this season of betrayal by our governments. We are in desperate need of hope as we watch so many suffer from the consequences of this contrived pandemic and the bio-engineered covid vaccines upon every area of our world – on it’s people, young and old who have been hurt and even killed by this disease and the vaccines, and the many ways these have been mismanaged. We are in desperate need of hope as we see our food supply increasingly corrupted by the pesticides and herbicides that are known poisons being sprayed on our crops just prior to harvest. We are in desperate need of hope as we view the rampant destruction of animals and food production in the name of protecting our interests, our climate and our “health”. We are in desperate need of hope as we view the betrayal by those who believe in science as our savior – and who will do whatever science dictates to the detriment of those on whom its inflicted.
Father YHWH, only You know the day and the hour of Your Savior’s return. You did promise in Your word that You would cut the time short (and that if you did not, none would survive) (Matthew 24:22). Please Father, hear the cries of Your people all over this hurting, broken and corrupted world. Just as You looked out over the multitude and saw the sick and hurting and healed them all, look out over this multitude of Your children who are sick and hurting and heal us ALL!.
Come King Yeshua! Rescue Your people!
