Genesis 37-40
3. Favor of God upon the remnant – the Bride of Jesus Christ
4. Hedged in by God – Faith in His Covenant and Provision
Job 3:23
23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,
And whom God has hedged in?
Psalms 139:5

And laid Your hand upon me.
5. God’s judgment and Providence
God’s judgment upon the ‘Herod’s’ if there is no repentance and God’s loving Providence
Acts 12:20-24
Herod's Violent Death
20 Now Herod had been very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; but they came to him with
one accord, and having made Blastus the king's personal aide their friend, they asked for peace,
because their country was supplied with food by the king's country.
[He had been quarreling with the people of Tyre and Sidon; they now joined together and sought an
audience with him. After securing the support of Blastus, a trusted personal servant of the king, they
asked for peace, because they depended on the king’s country for their food supply. NIV]
21 So on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne and gave an oration to them. 22
And the people kept shouting, “The voice of a god and not of a man!” 23 Then immediately an angel
of the Lord struck him, because he did not give glory to God. And he was eaten by worms and died.
24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
6. The Fullness of His Promise and the Harvest
Joel 2
Chapter 2
The Day of the Lord
1 Blow the trumpet in Zion,
And sound an alarm in My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;
For the day of the Lord is coming,
For it is at hand:
2 A day of darkness and gloominess,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains.
A people come, great and strong,
The like of whom has never been;
Nor will there ever be any such after them,
Even for many successive generations.
3 A fire devours before them,
And behind them a flame burns;
The land is like the Garden of Eden before them,
And behind them a desolate wilderness;
Surely nothing shall escape them.
4 Their appearance is like the appearance of horses;
And like swift steeds, so they run.
[REVIVAL FIRE]
5 With a noise like chariots
Over mountaintops they leap,
Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,
Like a strong people set in battle array.
6 Before them the people writhe in pain;
All faces are drained of color.
7 They run like mighty men,
They climb the wall like men of war;
Every one marches in formation,
And they do not break ranks.
8 They do not push one another;
Every one marches in his own column.
Though they lunge between the weapons,
They are not cut down.
9 They run to and fro in the city,
They run on the wall;
They climb into the houses,
They enter at the windows like a thief.
10 The earth quakes before them,
The heavens tremble;
The sun and moon grow dark,
And the stars diminish their brightness.
11 The Lord gives voice before His army,
For His camp is very great;
For strong is the One who executes His word.
For the day of the Lord is great and very terrible;
Who can endure it?
A Call to Repentance
12 “ Now, therefore,” says the Lord,
“ Turn to Me with all your heart,
With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”
13 So rend your heart, and not your garments;
Return to the Lord your God,
For He is gracious and merciful,
Slow to anger, and of great kindness;
And He relents from doing harm.
14 Who knows if He will turn and relent,
And leave a blessing behind Him—
A grain offering and a drink offering
For the Lord your God?
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion,
Consecrate a fast,
Call a sacred assembly;
16 Gather the people,
Sanctify the congregation,
Assemble the elders,
Gather the children and nursing babes;
Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber,
And the bride from her dressing room.
17 Let the priests, who minister to the Lord,
Weep between the porch and the altar;
Let them say, “ Spare Your people, O Lord,
And do not give Your heritage to reproach,
That the nations should rule over them.
Why should they say among the peoples,
‘ Where is their God? ’”
The Land Refreshed
18 Then the Lord will be zealous for His land,
And pity His people.
19 The Lord will answer and say to His people,
“ Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil,
And you will be satisfied by them;
I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.
20 “But I will remove far from you the northern army,
And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land,
With his face toward the eastern sea
And his back toward the western sea;
His stench will come up,
And his foul odor will rise,
Because he has done monstrous things.”
21 Fear not, O land;
Be glad and rejoice,
For the Lord has done marvelous things!
22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field;
For the open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And rejoice in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the former rain faithfully,
And He will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
25 “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,
The crawling locust,
The consuming locust,
And the chewing locust,
My great army which I sent among you.
26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied,
And praise the name of the Lord your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
And My people shall never be put to shame.
27 Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel:
I am the Lord your God
And there is no other.
My people shall never be put to shame.
God's Spirit Poured Out
28 “And it shall come to pass afterward
That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your old men shall dream dreams,
Your young men shall see visions.
29 And also on My menservants and on My maidservants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
30 “And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth:
Blood and fire and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
32 And it shall come to pass
That whoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.
For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance,
As the Lord has said,
Among the remnant whom the Lord calls.

If a man should walk in a false spirit
And speak a lie, saying,
‘I will prophesy to you of wine and drink, ’
Even he would be the prattler of this people.
Israel Restored
12 “I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob,
I will surely gather the remnant of Israel;
I will put them together like sheep of the fold,
Like a flock in the midst of their pasture;
They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.
13 The one who breaks open will come up before them;
They will break out,
Pass through the gate,
And go out by it;
Their king will pass before them,
With the Lord at their head.”

13. A City on a Hill and A Call to Repentance

Me." Jonah 1:2
14. Watchman on the Wall

6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
They shall never hold their peace day or night.
You who make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,

And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

pleases Me, And hold fast My covenant,

20. Leap and Level Up
Jonah
“Sin is of a stupifying nature, and we are concerned to take heed lest at any time our hearts be
hardened by the deceitfulness of it. It is the policy of Satan, when by his temptations he has drawn
men from God and their duty, to rock them asleep in carnal security, that they may not be sensible
of their misery and danger. It concerns us all to watch therefore.” Matthew Henry commentary on
Jonah
“Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.”
James 4:17
“Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god, and cast forth the wares that
[were] in the ship into the sea, to lighten [it] of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the
ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep. So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What
meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us, that we
perish not.” Jonah 1:5,6
Is this not the cry of the Lord to the nations? “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the
nations.”
Spirit of Stupor
or Slumber
“A just and necessary chiding: What meanest thou, O sleeper? Here we commend the ship-master,
who gave him this reproof; for, though he was a stranger to him, he was, for the present, as one of
his family; and whoever has a precious soul we must help, as we can, to save it from death. We pity
Jonah, who needed this reproof; as a prophet of the Lord, if he had been in his place, he might have
been reproving the king of Nineveh, but, being out of the way of his duty, he does himself lie open to
the reproofs of a sorry ship-master. See how men by their sin and folly diminish themselves and
make themselves mean. Yet we must admire God’s goodness in sending him this seasonable reproof,
for it was the first step towards his recovery, as the crowing of the cock was to Peter. Note, Those
that sleep in a storm may well be asked what they mean.” Matthew Henry commentary on Jonah
“when the word of the Lord comes to us, to have the Spirit of the Lord come along with the word,
to bring every thought within us into obedience to it. The prophet Isaiah owns that therefore he was
not rebellious, neither turned away back, because God not only spoke to him, but opened his ear,
Isa. 50:5. Let us learn hence to cease from man, and not to be too confident either of ourselves or
others in a time of trial; but let him that thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” Matthew Henry
commentary on Jonah
21. I Will Pour Out My Spirit – Leaping as One
Joel 2:1-5
Psalms 18:29-32
For by You I can run against a troop,
By my God I can leap over a wall.
30 As for God, His way is perfect;
The word of the Lord is proven;
He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
31 For who is God, except the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?
32 It is God who arms me with strength,
And makes my way perfect.
22. Spirit of Counsel = A Pure House
Psalm 1 – I said out loud, “Psalm 1” = My house shall be called a house of prayer
Psa 1:1 Blessed [is] the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of
sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
Psa 1:2
But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.
Psa 1:3
He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its
season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.
Psa 1:4
The ungodly [are] not so, But [are] like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Psa 1:5
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation
of the righteous.
Psa 1:6
For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
