THE VALLEY OF
TROUBLE When the children of Israel crossed over the Jordon to possess the land that flowed with
milk and honey, their 1st order of business was to get circumcised and then to observe the Passover and the Feast
of Unleavened Bread.
Their next order of business was to take care of Jericho.
YEHWEH instructed them to kill everyone in the city except for Rahab and those in her house because she hid the messengers
who were sent to spy out the city.
He commanded them to not take the spoil of the city unto themselves
but rather to bring the gold and the silver and the brass and the iron into His treasury.
There
was a man whose name was Achan who rebelled against His instructions and he took some of the gold and the silver and a garment
from Babylon and hid them in his tent.
After Jericho, Israel moved on to take out AI.
The spies reported back that there were not many in AI so Joshua only sent 3,000 men to destroy the city.
Because Achan had rebelled against our Creator's instructions, YEHWEH was not with Israel and AI drove them back
and killed 36 of them.
36 is also in Noah's timeline.
It was 36 days
from when the 3rd dove did not return to Noah on the 25th day of the 11th month until he
was told to remove the covering on the 1st day of the 1st month.
Achan's
rebellion to YEHWEH's instructions caused the Most High to send trouble upon Israel.
YEHWEH told
Joshua that Achan's not hearkening to His commandment was transgressing against His covenant.
Here
is what He instructed Joshua to do to Achan so that He would once again fight for Israel;
Joshua
7
15 And it shall be that he that has taken the accursed thing shall
be burnt with fire, HE AND ALL THAT HE HAS BECAUSE HE PASSED OVER YEHWEH'S
COVENANT AND HAS DONE FOLLY (WHOREDOME) IN ISRAEL.
The word here for
folly is associated elsewhere in the scriptures with playing the whore.
YEHWEH is saying that
Achan's rebellion to His instructions is whoredom to Him.
And his playing the whore to the Most
High is passing over His covenant to become His eternal seed.
Here is Achan's fate;
Joshua 7
24 And Joshua and all Israel with him took Achan,
the son of Zerah, and the silver and the babylonish garment and the wedge of gold and his sons and his daughters and his oxen
and his asses and his sheep and his tent AND ALL THAT HE HAD and they brought them to
THE VALLEY OF ACHOR.
Achan
means troubler.
Achor refers to a place of trouble.
25 And Joshua said, Why have you brought THIS TROUBLE upon
us? YEHWEH WILL TROUBLE you this day. AND ALL ISRAEL STONED THEM
WITH STONES AND BURNED THEM WITH FIRE AFTER THEY HAD STONED THEM WITH STONES.
26
And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day. So YEHWEH turned from the fierceness
of His anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called THE VALLEY OF ACHOR
unto this day.
Jeremiah prophesied that the end-time time of tribulation is referred
to as the time of Jacob's or Israel's trouble.
Recorded in this event with Achan, YEHWEH is telling
you that because of your rebellion to His instructions, He is going to send the time of affliction upon you.
He is going to do so in order to humble you into repentance.
And if you will not repent,
He is going to purge you from before His face altogether.
Jeremiah 30
7
Alas! Because that day is great so that there is none like it: IT IS THE TIME OF JACOB'S
TROUBLE TO DELIVER HIM FROM IT.
8 It will come
to pass in that day, saith YEHWEH of hosts, that I will break the yoke from off your neck and will pluck away your bonds and
you will no longer be enslaved to (serve) strange women (referring to no longer being enslaved in your adulteries to
Him):
9 YOU
WILL SERVE YEHWEH ELOHIYM and David your king whom I will raise up to you.
YEHWEH's
word commands us to purge out those who refuse to obey Him from our midst like they did with Achan and all that he had.
What part of this don't you understand?
We are commanded to do so in order that others
will fear passing over His covenant.
We are commanded to do so in order that the rebellious people
won't be able to teach others to rebel against the Most High.
Doing so is helping Him build His
eternal family.
What part of this doesn't your rebellious, uncircumcised heart understand?
YEHWEH's reference to the valley of Achor or the valley of trouble is a prophetic reference to the valley of Armageddon.
Since the time of Jacob's trouble is for the great and fearful day of YEHWEH's wrath, the valley of trouble is a
reference to the valley of Armageddon.
The valley of trouble is where the blood is going to flow
out from you to the depth of a horses bridle if you do not repent from your rebellion to the Most High.
He named the valley of trouble what He did because Achan, the troubler rebelled against His instructions and brought
trouble to Israel.
Your doing so has done the same thing.
Your rebellion
to His instructions has brought YEHWEH's wrath (that He has held back until now) to you in order to humble you.
How long will you be divided between two opinions of Him.
If you want to continue to
hold onto the blasphemous image of the Most High that you serve, then prepare to be purged from before His face.
But if you will turn to serving His true righteous image, then He will deliver you into the millennium where you
can live to become part of a latter harvest into His family.
The decision is yours to make.
Choose life so that you and your seed can become His eternal seed.
Thus saith YEHWEH
Elohiym
