THE THRONE OF GOD

HE EXCERCISES A JURISDICTION AND GOVERNMENT; HE IS KING AND LAWGIVER IN IT; HE ENACTS LAWS  AND HE WRITES THEM ON THE HEARTS OF HIS PEOPLE AND PUTS HIS SPIRIT WITHIN THEM, AND MAKES THEM BOTH ABLE AND WILLING TO OBEY HIM.

REV. 4:2 

After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. 2And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. 3And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. 4And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. 5And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

KINGS AND RULERS THE LORD SET THEM UP AND ALSO REMOVES THEM

 

PROVERBS THE KINGS HEART IS IN THE HAND OF  THE LORD, LIKE THE RIVERS OF WATER; HE TURNS IT WHEREVER HE WISHES.  IN ANCIENT TIMES, NATIONS OFTEN CALLED THEIR KINGS GODS. NONE COULD CALL THEM TO ACCOUNT. 

DEUT. 17:20 THE KING MUST NOT CONSIDER HIMSELF BETTER THAN HIS BROTHERS AND TURN FROM THE LAW TO THE RIGHT OR TO THE LEFT. 

SAUL IS THE FIRST KING OF THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL AND JUDAH. DAVID AS THE SECOND KING. KING SOLOMON WAS RICH AND CLEVER. 

SAUL WAS DETHRONED BECAUSE HE HAD SELFISH AMBITIONS AND DID NOT WANT TO LISTEN TO THE LORD. DAVID WAS A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART WHO WAS BRAVE ENOUGH TO TAKE DOWN A BIG GIANT NAMED GOLIATH AS A YOUNG BOY, EVEN THOUGH HE DID THAT HE HAD A WEAKNESS FOR ANOTHER MAN'S WIFE.

SOLOMON WAS VERY WISE RICH AND BUSINESS SAAVY BUT HE WENT AFTER PAGAN WOMEN WHO FOLLOWED OTHER GODS.  

THESE PEOPLE WERE KINGS IN THE WORLD. THE LORD OF LORD AND KING OF KINGS IS SOVERIGN. THOSE PEOPLE RLED OVER EARTHLY THINGS BUT THE LORD RULES OVER ALL CREATION. HE IS THE RULER OF ALL IN ALL AND OF ALL. HE SETS UP KINGS AND REMOVES THEM AS WELL.

DANIEL 2:21

AND HE CHANGETH THE TIMES AND SEASONS; HE REMOVES KINGS AND ESTABLISHES THEM. HE GIVES WISDOM UNTO THE WISE, AND KNOWLEDGE TO THOSE WHO HAVE UNDERSTANDING

THE FORMER AND LATTER RAIN

 Be glad, O children of Zion,

and rejoice in the LORD your God,

for He has given you the autumn rains

for your vindication.

He sends you showers,

both autumn and spring rains, as before.

24The threshing floors will be full of grain,

and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.

JOEL 2 :23-26

I will repay you for the years eaten by locusts—

the swarming locust, the young locust,

the destroying locust, and the devouring locustf—

My great army that I sent against you.

26You will have plenty to eat,

until you are satisfied.

They have not said in their hearts,

‘Let us fear the LORD our God,

who gives the rains, both autumn and spring, in season,

who keeps for us the appointed weeks of harvest.’ JEREMIAH 5:24

THE LORD THY GOD BLESSES YOU BREAD AND WATER . HE WILL INCREASE AND MULTIPLY WHAT YOU STAND IN NEED OF AND GIVE YOU MORE THAN PLENTY.
