Zechariah Vision #6 Flying Scroll:

Zec 5:1 I looked up again and saw–surprise!–a book on the wing! A book flying!

Zec 5:2 The Messenger-Angel said to me, "What do you see now?" I said, "I see a book flying, a huge book–thirty feet long and fifteen wide!"

Zec 5:3 He told me, "This book is the verdict going out worldwide against thieves and liars. The first half of the book disposes of everyone who steals; the second half takes care of everyone who lies.

Zec 5:4 I launched it"–Decree of GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies–"and so it will fly into the house of every thief and every liar. It will land in each house and tear it down, timbers and stones."

 

God’s Word contains curses upon thieves and liars. “Those who swear falsely by His name”; we thank God through Christ we are redeemed from the curse. However, those who reject Christ and his teachings will have this curse if they do not repent of their ways.

There are those who have stolen from this church and have not repented, those who swear falsely against this house whom God’s Word cursed, in fact their irreverent lives and false accusations brings this on themselves, if you hear these words God is giving you a chance today to repent and sin no more, TO BE FREE of this curse. This curse is a blessing to those who fear God, remember how letters of false accusation were sent to the Kings supporting the building of the temple? It is the same today. Many false emails and slander have been sent out against us to major leaders throughout the world, but God stops that today and He builds this house, “all those whose Spirits God has moved “ will go up and build this house in Cape Town.

 

Read Ezra 4:7

Ezra 5 – Decree Checked

 

Ezra 6:1-13 – The accusation and curses turned upon the thieves and liars! Darius confirms the decree to build and supports the work.

 

 

Zechariah Vision #7: Woman in a basket

Zec 5:5 The Messenger-Angel appeared and said, "Look up. Tell me what you see."

Zec 5:6 I said, "What in the world is that?" He said, "This is a bushel basket on a journey. It holds the sin of everyone, everywhere."

Zec 5:7 Then the lid made of lead was removed from the basket–and there was a woman sitting in it!

Zec 5:8 He said, "This is Miss Wicked." He pushed her back down into the basket and clamped the lead lid over her.

Zec 5:9 Then I looked up and to my surprise saw two women flying. On outstretched wings they airlifted the bushel basket into the sky.

Zec 5:10 I said to the Messenger-Angel, "Where are they taking the bushel basket?"

Zec 5:11 He said, "East to the land of Shinar. They will build a garage to house it. When it's finished, the basket will be stored there."

“House” is from H1004 בּית bayith   bah'-yith

Probably from H1129 abbreviated; a house (in the greatest variation of applications, especially family, etc.): – court, daughter, door, + dungeon, family, + forth of, X great as would contain, hangings. home[born], [winter]house (-hold), inside(-ward), palace, place, + prison, + steward, + tablet, temple, web, + within (-out).

 

Location: Shinar – H8152 shin‛âr shin-awr'

Probably of foreign derivation; Shinar, a plain in Babylon: – Shinar.

Revelation 16:19; 17:5; Chapter 18.

Also the place where Daniel was carried away captive.

Jeremiah pronounced judgement on Babylon, and his prophecies inspired Daniel to pray and fast for the deliverance of God’s people from that city.

That spirit of Babylon is still visible today in the media, the way people do business, the fornication of the nations with the Whore Spirit Babylon. The whole concept of “Sex sells” is the spirit of Babylon, “Mother of Harlots”. Be delivered from that Whoring Spirit today in Jesus’ name. This vision places that Wicked Women in a dungeon that is established for her. We were not meant to love in dungeons, the devil and his wicked cohorts are bound up in the bottomless pit.

 

As we read the passages in Revelation, it becomes clear that there is a spirit of Babylon that rules the corporate sector and business in our society. The symptoms of influence by "Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and of the Abominations of the earth" are clearly seen in the way the World does business. But the good news is that even in the midst of Babylon, we can live godly lives. Think of Daniel in Babylon – how it took 21 days to break through the spiritual oppression through fasting and prayer and divine intervention – but he got an answer to prayer and his nation benefitted. Remember how John's vision ends! Babylon falls and the Bible says: "rejoice over her you holy apostles and prophets, or God has avenged you on her! Teacher Anton De Gruchy mentioned a scripture that helps us to work in the midst of Babylon today: it was during the time of exile where Jeremiah encouraged the people – "serve the King of Babylon an live" so that the people should not die and the city not
