Biblical and Prophetic Meaning: Numbers 711, 717, 818, 919 – Asking, Overcoming, Receiving!

Biblical and Prophetic Meaning: Numbers 711, 717, 818, 919 – Asking, Overcoming, Receiving!

Following is a question from a viewer about the meaning of a biblical/prophetic sign on one of our Wednesday Q&A Live broadcasts:

Question: The Holy Spirit keeps showing me the numbers 711, 717, 818, and 919 every day. What does this mean?

Watch the short video below and read the biblical interpretation that follows to have a better understanding of what these numbers mean if you are seeing them as well.

 

Biblical/Prophetic Interpretation:

711: Any time you’re seeing 711, it means Matthew 7:11 – ask for what you want. You are in a window of opportunity right now from the Lord with Him showing you the number 711, meaning ask for it. You have not because you ask not. Go to the scriptures – Matthew 7:11. “Ask, and it shall be given unto you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and the door will be open to you.” Everyone who asks receives, so I want you to go boldly to the throne of grace. You’re being told how to pray right now from the Holy Spirit – to ask for what you want. Can we ask for what we want? Well, that’s what the Bible says. 

717: Seven means God has completed something in your life, and 17 means victory of the overcomer. So when you’re seeing 7-17 together, it means God is pleased with you and what you have completed in Him and He has completed in You. He has completely and totally completed something very, very powerful in you, and you have had the victory. It’s the number of fulfillment. Seven is God’s number of completion, that He has fulfilled something in you, and He’s pleased about it. He looks at you, and He says, “It is good.” Then 17 means victory of the overcomer, that you had victory because you overcame in Christ.

818: This number means the power to get wealth. Money! Deuteronomy 8:18. Eight is the number of Jesus Christ and new beginnings, and 18 is life and life abundant. So it’s a time of new beginnings. It’s a time of abundant wealth, health, and prosperity. Deuteronomy 8:18 – “For I, the Lord, have given you the power to get wealth.” 

So He’s telling you how to pray right now. He’s saying to ask for what you want in 711. Don’t be shy, and believe it is yours. Seven 17 – God is looking at you and He’s pleased. He’s finished something wonderful in you, and you’ve overcome. You’ve had the victory of the overcomer through Christ Jesus. Now He’s showing you that He’s given you the power to get wealth – a business idea, a product, write a book – and it will prosper. It’s a new beginning for you. 

919: This is the fun one – whooo hoooo! Nine means two things. Nine means judgment and birthing. It means that the old stuff in your life that’s no longer serving you or God is being judged and removed, and you are birthing something new – a ministry, a business, building for the Lord. The 19 means exploits of faith. There are 19 heroes of the faith in the book of Hebrews – Abraham, Sarah …. So the old stuff is getting judged and removed, stuff that has nothing to do with the new thing that is being birthed in your life, and don’t try to go back after it. Let it go! It’s a time of birthing. If you are past childbearing years, it means  you’re going to be birthing businesses, ministry. And the 19 is representation of exploits of faith – heroes of the faith – meaning you’re getting cheered on from Heaven! Your faith is strong. Go for it. That is an awesome sequence of numbers. The Holy Spirit is telling you exactly how to pray right now. He is giving you step by step by step what He’s doing in your life. 

Scripture References

Matthew 7:11
“ If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?”

Deuteronomy 8:18
“But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.”

Prophetic Word: The Renaissance Timing For Our Children

Prophetic Word: The Renaissance Timing For Our Children

Transcription of the word that the Holy Spirit gave to Annamarie Strawhand, which she delivered during her broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane on February 14, 2025.

 Watch the video, and then read the transcript below.

 

ANNAMARIE: All right, so, uh, today is Friday, February 14 of 2025, and the Spirit of the Lord has come upon me very strongly, very intensely, very powerfully through the heart of Father God, uh, and He’s given me a prophetic word to speak, and I am going to just, right now, just submit myself to the Holy Spirit and let this word flow to me and through me to all of you. 

Hear the word of the Lord. It is a time for a renaissance among the children. They shall say. “It is like Divincis and Beethovens and Michelangelos have arisen in the children. How can this be? No one has taught them this. How can they pick up the paintbrush and the carving tools and sit at the musical instruments and create such masterpieces if they have not learned it in the schools and in the education systems?”

The Lord says, “HA! Your education systems have failed, but I, the Lord, do not. I am raising up the anointings in the children. I am raising them up as musical geniuses, artistic geniuses, craftsmen, and it shall be that the children shall walk away from the screens of their computers and their games, and they shall pick up their musical instruments and their paint brushes and their carving tools, and they shall say, “Mother, Father, I do not want the toys and games. I want to create. Give me the wood. Give me the musical instruments. Give me the dancing floors, for I want to create what is inside of me.” 

The children will not be able to hold back this creativity. It shall flow, and the adults shall be astounded, and they will say, “Where did this come from? How can it be?” But I, the Lord, have done it. I am raising up the children, the geniuses that shall flow, and these children shall come from every walk of life, from every home. For I, the Lord, have taught them through My Holy Spirit. They have been born with these gifts – double mantles, double anointings.

“The musical teachers and the teachers of art in the schools shall rejoice. They shall say, ‘Finally, finally, finally, I am able to teach the children because they’re coming to me already hungry for the music, already hungry for the dance, already hungry for the arts, already hungry for the poetry.’ And it shall flow from these children like wells of living water. For I have given the children the upper spring and the lower spring. I have given them the hot springs, the hot springs to soothe them and bathe them and purify them like I did in the years gone by, but I shall also give them the upper springs and the lower springs, and they shall have the cool, refreshing springs. My children shall drink of the living water. They shall be refreshed in the spirit – the Divincis, the Michaelangelos, the architects, the artists, the musicians. People will be astounded. It will be the children that will teach the teachers. It will be like My Son when He sat at the temple and spoke to the elders, and they were astounded at His wisdom, so it shall be in the children. 

“These children have gone from paupers to princes. They shall carry the children and raise them up, for I have covered them with the blood of My Son and the anointing of My Holy Spirit. They are clothed in dignity and wisdom. My prophets, teachers, and evangelists shall arise through the children. The children shall stand upon the stages and in the spotlights and teach of My Word and prophesy and lay hands of healing like the world has never seen before. And they will say, “Where did these children come from? How can it be? How can they know these things?

“But it is the work of My Holy Spirit, and the children shall say to their parents, ‘Arise, Mother. Arise, Father. Do you not know that you had a gift within you from a, a young age?’ And you shall use it again. And the children shall help stir the gifts back up in their parents, and their parents will be like little children again, and they shall say, ‘Ah, I picked up the paintbrush again. I have picked up the gardening tools.’

“And the children shall build and create beside their parents, and I shall finance these things,” says the Lord. “And I shall finance the art centers, and I shall finance these programs across the Nation of America and into the world, and there will be patent leather shoes of the children that shall run to the patent offices, and the children shall have patents for inventions, and they shall have such witty ideas. It’ll be like, ‘This is a renaissance. How can this be? Only since the time of Davinci has this been,’ but the Lord has said, ‘It is ME! For the wicked one have done everything in their power to hold back the gifts of the children, but NO MORE! I, the Lord, have spoken, and those wicked ones who have prostituted our children and done everything they could to make a slavery system out of the education system, they shall be slaves themselves. THEY SHALL BE MADE FOOLS OF! THEY SHALL GROVEL IN THE STONES AND KISS THE FEET OF THE CHILDREN WHO HAVE ALL THE WISDOM! 

“And the children shall be raised up on the shoulders of the parents. For I, the Lord, have contended with those who have contended with you – mothers and fathers and grandparents, aunts and uncles, and the teachers who have cried out into the midnight hour. I have contended with those who have contended with you, and I’ve saved the children. And I have put a leader at the helm and those who will come beside him who will advocate for the children. It is done. It is already written, and I, the Lord, shall be glorified in all of this for I have been there in the night. 

“I have seen and wrestled with the prayers of the weeping mothers and the weeping fathers and the weeping teachers. Yes, the teachers. I know the teachers have wanted this – the good teachers – because the mothers and the fathers and the teachers and the grandparents have wrestled with me deep into the night, says the Lord, and they have said to Me, ‘I am not letting go of you until You bless me,’ and like Jacob, I have blessed you. I am blessing the mothers and the fathers. I am blessing the grandparents and the aunts and the uncles and the teachers who have wrestled with me deep into the night. And I have said, ‘Yes, I will bless you.’ And your daughters shall be like the graceful pillars in a palace, and your sons shall be like a well-watered vine. 

“And this renaissance shall come, and there will be tabernacle choirs of children singing in every place. And the music shall rise, and it shall be like perfume to My nostrils as the musical performances shall come from the voices of the children. And, even in the schools, they shall sing the songs of great symphonies.”

And I hear in the spirit now, the children singing Isaiah. [Singing] He shall feed his flock like a shepherd. [End singing] 

“And I, the Good Shepherd, have led the children and their parents back to Me, back to My green pastures, back to My still waters, and I shall give them rest on all sides because the attacks on the children HAVE STOPPED TODAY! And now the children and the mothers and the fathers and the schools and the homeschooling, everywhere shall be schooled by My Holy Spirit and by My Son, Jesus Christ, and the children shall no lo, longer listen to the voice of the stranger. They shall listen to the voice of their Good Shepherd, MY SON, YESHUA! 

“And there shall be rejoicing and dancing in the street and great performances, and people shall be astounded at the ballerinas and the opera singers. They shall be astounded at the symphonies and the choirs of the children. They shall be astounded at the musical prodigies that have come forth. They shall be astounded at the masterpieces that these children are creating in paints and oils and watercolors, even in pencil drawings. They shall be astounded at the building that these children shall build.

“And how can this knowledge come upon the children? IT IS FROM ME,’ says the Lord. ‘For it is the children’s hour, and I shall bring the second trumpet next to the trumpet that I have raised up for this time. He is young, and he is a genius. He has wisdom beyond his years, not of this world but of mine, of my kingdom. And I’m raising up the leaders with an anointing from birth, and it is a double victory, and the parents shall be rejoicing because this is the generation that has sought My face. 

“And I’m releasing the generational bloodline promises and blessings upon this generation and the baby booms that shall come. Oh, it is glorious, and these children are being birthed in the earth FILLED WITH MY SPIRIT, and they will not be quiet. They will speak of such wisdom, and they will say, ‘How can these toddlers be speaking of such wisdom and such knowledge?’ And they will say, ‘Surely, this is God.’ [Inaudible] 

“And I, the Lord, shall be glorified in such a way like the world has never seen before, and I’m raising up five-fold ministries in these children – prophets, teachers, evangelists, healers. And they shall say, ‘Mother, Father, I must go and I must preach.’ 

“DO NO HOLD YOUR CHILDREN BACK! Nurture them in this. You nurture your children in this, there will be a crown waiting for you for I, the Lord, have already written it. It is done, and watch and see what I do to those who have held back the children. Watch and see what I will do to those who have held back the gifts of the children! They will grovel at your feet. The mothers and fathers that stayed up in the night and cried out to me, I have counted their tears. The mothers and the fathers who have said, ‘Why has my child had to go through such pain and bullying and abuse?’ For the evil ones have tried to raise up their evil villages, and they have tried to say, ‘It takes a village to raise a child.’ NO! That is a lie from the pit of hell! It takes two good parents – a mother and a father, a female and a male raising up the children according to My Word, according to My promises, in the name of My Son, Yeshua, through My Holy Spirit. 

“And children who have been raised up, and even those who have gone prodigal, and those parents who have prayed in the night who have done everything they could to keep their children focused on Me, and even if their children went prodigal, even if the demonic systems have tried to turn their children away from Me, IT HAS BEEN FUTILE! IT HAS BEEN FUTILE! I’M TALKING ABOUT THE DEMONIC SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN FUTILE, SAYS THE LORD, IT HAS BEEN A WASTE OF THEIR TIME!

“But I remember the time that the parents put in doing everything they could to instill My righteousness in the children. It has not been futile! It has not gone to waste! I, the Lord, remember all of it! And now those good seeds that you have sowed into your children and your children’s children, and even those good seeds from generations before that have been sowed into the generations in the name of My Son, Yeshua, in My name, through My Holy Spirit, those seeds are coming to harvest now in your children for my church, for my ecclesia, for my kingdom. They have not gone to waste. They have not been futile, for they have been incubated for a time, and now they are blossoming and blooming and perking up through the soil. Watch and see. For, My children, I have heard.

“Prodigals are no longer prodigal. Every lie that they have tried to instill in the children’s minds are being reversed right now. The parents who have cried out to Me in the night and the grandparents, I’ve heard your prayers and all the good seeds that you have sowed into your children of righteousness are blooming and blossoming and growing and coming to harvest. It has not been in vain; it has not. I, the Lord, have remembered you.

“Rachel no longer weeps for her children. The crying in the night has been heard. For I, the Lord, have raised up your children for this time, and I call your children blessed, for your prayers have blessed Me, says the Lord. I have not forgotten you. Mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, aunt, uncle, teacher, intercessor who has prayed for the children, contending for all these years crying out to Me, coming before My throne of grace, your prayers and your offerings and your seeds have accumulated before me, says the Lord, and I remember them today. And I’m dispatching My angels now to carry these out, and prepare to see My glory in the children and in your families and in your communities. And I’m raising up leaders to nurture your children that are filled with the Holy Spirit in such a way because these desires of the teachers that have My heart are finally to be fulfilled.”

Oh, the music teachers are rejoicing. The art teachers are rejoi, joicing. The dancing teachers are rejoicing. He says there will be shop classes again. The children will be building. They will say, “We do not want these screens of our phones and our iPads and our computers. No, we want to work with wood and tools and machines and wires and create and draw.” And the plans have rolled out, and the draftsman tables have been rolled back in, and the hunger these children have for this is incredible. And the daughters picking up the needles and the embroideries and the sewing machines, and they shall say, “I will work with wool and silks and linens and cottons. What are these plastics and these fake fabrics? Your daughters will want nothing to do with those.

And the sons and the daughters come beside the parents and say, “Mother, Father, let us create a garden. Let us grow the foods. Let us raise the livestock.” And I will give them land and the children and the livestock and the gardens and the families will grow. And I will walk with them in the land in the cool of the day, and they will say, “Look, Mama. Look, Papa. I see Jesus. He is walking with us in the garden. He is with us.”

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon the families and the children, and I have anointed them, and I proclaim this is a time of great favor, a renaissance of brilliance and beauty, of growth, of harvest, of singing and rejoicing like the world has never seen before. And My hand is upon it and My glory, and it is written and nothing can come against it. So be it,” says the Lord.

Thank You, Father. Thank You, Jesus. You’ve heard us. You’ve heard our prayers. You’ve heard us weeping in the night and contending and wrestling for our children. Our prayers have not been in vain. Thank You. We praise You today, and we worship you, Almighty God. You are faithful. We are in expectation of Your glory in the children. 

Father God, equip us to help these children, that Your Holy Spirit will lead us. Give us understanding of what You’re doing so that we can be obedient, Father God.

And He’s given me two scriptures – Isaiah 49 and Isaiah 61 – and Isaiah 61 is being fulfilled for our children, and Isaiah 49 is being fulfilled for our children. Because I know I’m one of those moms …

You know, it’s interesting, He kept showing me one of my mentoring students that I’ve had for some time. Her name is Anji Morgan-Thornton, and, uh, she’s a professor of music. She’s also a race car driver, and I coached and mentored her for years. But she has a child-like faith, incredible child-like faith, and her and I have been praying together for years. I mean, her and I have been together for years praying. And she has prayed and prayed and prayed and suffered, suffered as a music professor, suffered as a music teacher because the schools and the universities did everything they could to make her job difficult, did everything they could to strip her from budgets.

And many times, her and I would spend hours on the phone and on the Zoom calls praying for the children, praying for the schools and the universities, praying for these arts and music to come back for the children and to remove these evil, wicked agendas and bring back the, the, uh, the artistic, creative because that is the Father’s heart. And Anji has the Father’s heart, and I’m so excited to give her this word because this is something she’s been praying for for years. And Anji’s done everything she could to keep the, these, uh, these teachings and these gifts, uh, alive for the children. She has fought, and she will be so excited to hear this word from the Lord. Because did you hear him? He said He’s going to bring the budgets back for this. He’s going to finance it, and He’s going to help the teachers that have prayed for this for years and the children that are going to come forth into these programs. It’s going to be incredible, and it’s going to be music, the arts, all types of creative, and craftsmanship. It’s going to be beautiful, and God is doing this.

And He showed me, He showed me mothers and fathers in the spirit, like Jacob, wrestling with Him into the night, crying out, and I, I was one of those moms for years because my daughter is an artist. My daughter is a singer and a musician. My daughter is a horsewoman. 

And I remember He told me to sow a three-dollar seed. He told me to take $3.00 – 3 one dollar bills – and sow that seed to Him and name each dollar my daughter’s gift for art, my daughter’s gift for music, and my daughter’s gift for horsemanship. And He said to sow those one dollar seeds into His kingdom – and, I mean, this was back in 2014, 2015 – and put it in an envelope and write down what the seed was and sow it. 

He told me to bring it to church and put it in, in, in the offering plate and name that seed and that those gifts that He put in her would be used for His glory. And He reminded me of that seed again today.

Now, if you have sown a seed for your children, and you have named that seed for their God-given gifts to be used for the glory of God, call forth that seed to harvest right now because this is the timing we’re in. And the Lord is saying we’ve wrestled Him into the night and said, “I’m not letting go until you bless me, until You bless my children and my grandchildren,” and he said, “I’m blessing you.”

And, you know, I can remember asking my daughter to go to church and all those things, and she would, it was a struggle. It was a struggle. And the Lord is saying He’s going to reward the parents who did everything they could to instill the Word of God and righteousness into their children. Even though it was a struggle, He has not forgotten that, and those parents that have struggled with that, He said He will reward them and their children. And their children will be scholars of the Bible, of His Word, and will have five-fold ministries. He has not forgotten. 

Everything that you have tried to do with your children, it was not, it did not go to waste. It was not futile. He said, did you hear what He said? He said what was futile is the demonic brainwashing that they tried to instill in our children. That’s coming to nothing. But our efforts as parents to instill righteousness and good values in our children is what was rooted and shall blossom and grow and be fruitful. Thank You, God. 

And I saw behind the parents and the grandmothers and the grandparents when they were coming before the throne of grace for King Jesus, huge mighty angels. I saw it in the spirit that the Lord, ah, when you pray as a grandmother or a mother or as a father or a grandfather or as an intercessor and you went boldly to the throne of grace, even when you were being ridiculed, even when times were very hard, but you still went before that throne of grace, before the Father, He gave me a vision this morning. 

And He said when you did that, He immediately signed, assigned mighty angels to you and your children to protect you and your children through this time. I saw three angels per person for their children and their grandchildren – huge, massive, muscular, armored up.

So when you went before the Lord and contended and said, “I’m here for the children. I’m here for the grandchildren. Immediately, three mighty angels of the Lord were assigned to you to carry out your prayers for the children. I saw it in the spirit. That’s happening. 

Now, when He showed me the trumpet and He said, “This trumpet is President Trump, who is contending for the children, and there’s going to be a smaller, a younger trumpet that comes beside him.” Now, I don’t know if that is Barron or other younger men and women coming beside him. Now, I noticed that President Trump has assigned a lot of other younger leaders with children and a lot of young people into these places, and he’s giving them a voice. 

So I saw these double trumpets, and it’s like two horns on a freight train. You know how like the freight train is coming and it’s got the double horns on it, and nothing is going to stop this. This is the glory train. And Trump is the big trumpet, and there’s another smaller trumpet, younger one that is coming beside President Trump that is younger but it’s, it’s a, it’s a second powerful voice, and it’s for the children, and it’s a younger person.

And this younger person is going to be helping to raise up these child prodigies and these geniuses and giving them opportunities. I don’t know if this is Barron. I don’t know if this is Elon Musk. I don’t know, I’m not sure who it is. I just saw the main trumpet, President Trump, and then the second smaller trumpet. And He’s giving that person that voice. This is the Lord, and it’s going to be a, a younger person that is going to be speaking up for the children and raising up the children into places of authority because these children will be absolutely brilliant, and the demons are screaming. Too bad, they’re getting run over by the freight train, the glory train because the Lord says it’s written, it’s done. 

Now, when we get a prophetic word like this, we pray on it. And the Lord is giving us two scriptures, and I’m going to read from, we’re going to read, uh, right now Isaiah 41 [sic – meant 61]. And the Lord reminded me that He had me take Isaiah 41[sic – meant 61] and turn it into a prayer, into a decree over the children. And I’m going to read from that, and then we’re going to go … Okay, wait a minute. He’s saying He wants Isaiah 49 first and then Isaiah 61. Okay, Lord, I will do this. [Sigh] I mean, the anointing of the Holy Spirit is very heavy on me right now. I’m doing everything I can to be obedient with this word. Okay, Is, Isaiah, Isaiah, uh, 49. He wants us to pray on that scripture. I’m going to go to the King James version. 

Heavenly Father, Father God, we thank You for Your Word in Isaiah 49. We thank You, Lord, for this prophetic word this morning. We thank You, oh, Father, You are so faithful, and we believe Your word in Isaiah 49 when You say this is what You are doing for us right now and this is what You’re doing for the children. 

1 Listen, O isles, unto me, and hearken, ye people, from far; the Lord hath called me from the womb from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. 2 And He hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of His hand hath He his me and made me a polished shaft; in His quiver hath He hid me; 3 And said unto me, Thou art My servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified. 

And when He says, “O Israel,” He’s talking about His people – Jews and Christians.

4 Then I said, I have labored in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain; yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God. 

And those of you who have labored and come before the Lord deep into the night in prayer, but hear the Word of the Lord. This is what He’s saying.

5 And now, saith the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him (right, his people), though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the Lord, and my God shall be my strength. 

He’s talking about His people – Jews and Christians. 

6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give thee for a light unto the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the ends of the earth. 7 Thus saith the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, kings shall see and arise, princess shall also worship, because of the Lord that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee. 8 Thus saith the Lord, in an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation I have helped thee, and I will preserve thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages; 9 that thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth, to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places. 10 They shall not hunger or thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them; for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them. 11 And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. 12 Behold, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and the west; and these from the land of Sinam. 13 Sing, O heavens, and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains; for the Lord has comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. 14 But Zion said, the Lord hath forsaken me, and my God hath forgotten me. 

Moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, intercessors, I know you have felt that way, but the Lord is saying He hasn’t forgotten us. He hasn’t forgotten our prayers and our prayers for the children.

15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. 16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.

You know, another vision He gave me this morning, He said it’s our songs and the songs of worship that have destroyed and brought down the walls of bureaucracy and the walls of the demonic fortresses. And it’s His families and His children that are building up His fortresses, His buildings.

17 They children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made the waste shall go forth of thee. 

So those that have come against the children, those that have come against us that have tried to destroy us and destroy our children. They are going to flee from us and flee from our children.

18 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth. 

Now the Lord showed me the lifting up of the children, carrying the children, and He showed me the children shall be carried as if on gold pillows, gold pillows. He’s made like these gold pillows for the children, and it’s like these children are being lifted up on gold pillows, and, uh, He’s saying the fathers and the mothers are carrying the children, and the children are like, uh, when the children on our shoulders, they’ll be like a crown. When the children are in our arms, they’ll be like an ornament, and the children are once again bound back to their families and to their mothers and their fathers and to their grandparents, and no one can snatch them away from us ever again. It’s like Jesus says that He has put us in the hand of the Father, like a pearl, and nothing can snatch us out of the hand of the Father, and Jesus is doing it again. And He’s turning the hearts of the sons back to the fathers and the hearts of the fathers back to the sons. And we’re seeing it happen with the children everywhere. Children are being carried by the parents, and the Lord is saying this is His doing. This is the Isaiah 49 happening.

19 For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away. 

So what He’s going to do is those evil wicked ones that have been trying to snatch our children, the ones that have gone and snatched children, the ones that are brainwashing our children, their paths have been made so narrow they can never find their way back to our children. It’s over. It’s done. They will be put in the, those evil wicked ones that have come against us and our children, they will be put in the desolate places, and they will not be able to find a path back to the children. It’s over. They will never be able to find a pa, path back to our schools. They will never be able to find a path back to our churches. They will never be able to find a path back to us in our homes.

20 The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, the place is too straight for me, give place to me that I may dwell. 

So, in other words, if you’ve lost children, if the children, if children that have been lost, the Lord is saying, “I’m making your path straight again. I’m giving you beautiful places to dwell in. “ And you will have more children, and you will have more grandchildren. And if you’re an intercessor or an aunt or an uncle, you are going to be blessed with  your nieces and your nephews. You’re going to be blessed with the children that you’ve prayed for. You will receive blessing.

21 Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, an removing to and fro? And who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?

I know what it was like praying for a prodigal, and you may have felt like things were lost. You don’t understand why you have prayed for your children for so many years. Your children were raised up in a godly home, and you’re blaming yourself like, “What did I do wrong? Why did my children go astray or go prodigal?” But the Lord is saying, “Do not lament anymore. Do not weep over your children, and do not weep over your adult children, for I, the Lord, am bringing your children back to you,” um hum, “and your grandchildren.” Come on.

22 Thus saith the Lord, behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people.

So the words, the Lord is going to go into those areas, those places where your children and your grandchildren were influenced by the enemy, by worldly ways, and He’s bringing your children out of the eme, enemy influence. He’s bringing your children out of those worldly influences, and He’s putting up a standard, a wall against those worldly influences. He’s putting up a wall against those demonic influences. He’s taking up your children, pulling them up out of those demonic worldly influences, and He’s bringing them back to you, and we will have our children and our grandchildren in our arms. They will be carried upon our shoulders, and they will be blessed. 

And they will be speaking the wisdom of the Lord. They will have the wisdom of the Lord and the blessing of the Lord upon them, and all that demonic influence, all that worldly influence will be completely, it’ll be like God took a wall and removed it away from your children. And they will not be able to go back to those worldly, demonic influences, ever. God will block it from your children and from your children’s children now and forevermore. And we are being rich in experiences with our children and with the Lord and with our grandchildren. Carrying them on our shoulders. Lifting them up. Lifting them up in hugs. It’s going to be so blessed with your children and grandchildren and the Lord and even the little ones and the adult children. Come on. 

22 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers, and they shall bow down to thee with their face towards the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet, and thou shall know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

In other words, those, those leaders, right, those leaders that are called up to government, God will make it their first priority to make sure that they do what the parents say, and they will have to nurture your children and bless your children the way you want it to be done from the Lord. 

In other words, we go to school board meetings, they’ll have to do what the parents say. They’ll literally be our, they’ll, they’ll have to nurture what we do. We will say, “You’re going to do this, this, and this for the children. Bible will be back in school. Prayer will be back in school. Art and music programs back in school,” and they will have to do it. They’ll have to do it. 

22b …and lick the dust of your feet, and they will know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

In other words, we will no longer have shame. We will no longer be shamed by these woke people. They will have to do what we say, led by the righteousness of God. They will have no choice, and if they don’t like it, they got to leave, and they won’t be able to find their way back. We pray for the fear of the Lord to come upon them and to turn from their wicked ways and fall to their knees in repentance because that’s also happening with all of this. 

24 Shall the prey be taken from the captive or the lawful captive delivered?

What does that mean? There has been demonic strongholds that have been coming against our children, the mighty, demonic strongholds, right? In the spirit realm, Jesus called them the strongman, and the strongman has all these demons. And a lot of times when kids go prodigal, there’s that stronghold that’s on them, right? Guess what? The strongman is defeated. God is saying it’s over for our children that have been in captivity, whether they’ve been prodigal or even those children that are actually being brought out of actual captivity, coming out of trafficking, and the children that are being held captive by a woke agenda, you know, I call it a demonic agenda, the Lord is saying right here….shall the prey be taken from the mighty or the lawful captive delivered? God is saying, “I’m getting your children out, and it, it might look like those evil wicked people have had power and those demons have had power, it’s nothing for God, nothing, easy. He’s bringing our children up out of captivity, whether they be prodigal – and even our adult children – and even children that are coming out of actual captivity, children that are actually coming out of trafficking. They’re all being brought out, and the demons are going to scream about their laws, but it’s over!! God’s law rules and reigns, and He’s saving our children. But sa …

25 But thus saith the Lord, even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered, for I, the Lord, will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.

It’s happening.

26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh, and they shall be drunken with their own blood as with sweet wine. And all the flesh shall know that I, the Lord, am thy Savior and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 

Watch and see what happens to these demonic people, led by the demonic. They’re going to be screeching and screaming, but, guess what? It’s only going to be against themselves. They will begin to devour each other. The wicked will begin to devour the wicked until there is none. They will fall down like they are drunk. They will not even be able to speak. It’ll be nothing but gibberish coming out of their mouths. 

It’s over for these wicked people who have come against our children and have tried to make slaves of God’s people. You’re going to see these wicked politicians and these wicked leaders, and, yes, it’ll even be people in the Church, they’ll be falling down. They’ll be like gibberish, like they won’t even be able to speak, um hmm. They’ll begin to devour each other, um hmm, because it’s over for them. 

And they’re going to know who God is because the fear of the Lord is not just coming on America. It’s coming across the world right now, and I pray that everyone comes to their knees in repentance, no matter who it is, and turns from their wicked ways and says, “Lord, I will obey you. I’m sorry for my sins.” And they will come forth and they will reveal the evil wickedness that they have done, and they will reveal where these children are. And they will expose their devices. 

And God is bringing justice. He’s bringing justice for the mothers and the fathers and the grandfathers and the grandmothers. He’s bringing justice for the generations of those who have prayed for the children. He’s bringing justice for the intercessors, and He’s bringing justice for us because the Spirit of the Lord God is coming upon the earth right now. Jesus is saying it’s done, and He is anointing us and anointing the children to proclaim the Good News of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. And this will be children right out of the womb proclaiming the time of the Lord’s favor. They will say it is like a renaissance, but what it really is is revival. 

And I’m going to read Isaiah 61. And this is the timing we’re in, my friends. And I’m going to be obedient to release this word, no matter how long it takes. And, everybody, just pray this along with me:

1 And the spirit of the Lord God is upon me because the Lord hath appointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek. He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all that mourn; 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified. 4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, and the desolations of many generations. 5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. 6 But ye shall be named priests of the Lord; men shall call you the ministers of our God; ye shall eat the riches of the gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.

7 For your shame, you shall have THE DOUBLE, and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore, in their land, they shall possess THE DOUBLE! Everlasting joy shall be unto them. 8 For I, the Lord, love judgment. I hate robbery for burnt offering, and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. 9 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles and their offspring among the people. All that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the Lord hath blessed. 10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord. My soul shall be joyful in my God, for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation. He hath covered me with the robe of righteousness. As a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with jewels, 11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. 

My friends, I had to bring that word in obedience this morning. Um, wow. So pray on this word. Keep believing on this word. Keep speaking on this word. Decree Isaiah 49 and Is, Isaiah 61 over the children, over your household, over your children and your children’s children. And today, being the 14th, that’s very, very prophetic. Fourteen means generational promises of God fulfilled. There is 14 generations between King David and King Jesus, and the more I think about it, think about 14 generations in your family. Who prayed? Who sowed seeds into the generations to come? Your grandparents, your great grandparents and those before them. 

The Lord is saying those seeds are coming to a goodly harvest for you and your family – generational promises and blessings coming upon you and your children like you’ve never seen before. This is the timing. The enemy did everything he could to hold it back, but he can’t. It’s going to come bursting forth like rivers of living water, like, like Niagra Falls. Nothing will be able to hold it back. This is God! Don’t look to man at all. This is God doing this, and God is saying, “I remember. It has come as a remembrance before me.” All the prayers and the offerings of your ancestors and you, that is going to pour out now upon you and your children.

I am just in awe of God right now. I am in awe of God. Thank You, Father. You have not forgotten us. You are so faithful. We are in expectation of Your glory in our lives and the lives of our children and our children’s children. 

So I want to thank my team and all of you for praying along with me. My team is going to put that word together in its own video along with the scriptures, and I’m going to ask my, uh, my scribe, Gynti Goose Gynpin, to transcribe the word and get it on my site. This is a treasure from Father right from His heart. What incredible times we are living in, my friends, incredible times. 

And, you know, I’m one of those people, and I know many of you, one of those moms, and I know there’s dads and there’s grandparents and intercessors that have gotten up in the night watch on their knees, on their faces, praying, contending at the feet of God for your children, your grandchildren, your adult children, for your families, for the children in the schools, for the children that have been put into trafficking – so many of you. And God is saying today He’s fulfilling out prayers, and it’s going to be greater than we ever asked or thought of. Oh, wow! My heart. 

And we finished that word at 12:12:16. Twelve is the perfect government of God manifested in the earth. The twelve tribes of Israel government with the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ government coming together as one with Jesus Christ at the head. And, um, number 16 means the reckless love of God for us. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that He sent His only Son ….” Come on. And I’m just in awe of God right now. I mean, the anointing is still on my very, very strong. I’m catching my breath here, and, um, I obediently released the word, and I pray you all received it and touch and agree and pray, um, on this and have great hope.

My friends, I had to bring that word in obedience this morning, um, wow, so pray on this word. Keep believing on this word. Keep speaking on this word.

Prophecy Update: 2/10/25 Supernatural Gates and Borders, Bethel, Gaza, The Destiny Stone, Trump

Following are the notes and posts of the prophetic updates, confirmations, and revelations that I posted on my Telegram channel this past week and talked about on my LIVE broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane this morning, February 10, 2025.

My team and I are continually finding these confirmations and updates, and I post them daily to my Telegram channel, so be sure you are following me there to keep up with what God is doing in these times!

VIDEO WITH NOTES BELOW

  • PROPHETIC WORD: TRUMP WILL GET GAZA, WEST BANK AND ALL ‘UN’ AREAS BACK FOR ISRAEL!!
  • AMERICA IS A TRIBE OF ISRAEL – ‘EPHRAIM’  The return of the tribes and Ephraim to Israel soil is prophesied in all the minor prophets!
  • EPHRAIM RETURNS TO ISRAEL AND ALL THE TRIBES – IT HAS BEGUN!
  • TAKING BACK THE “HOUSE OF GOD” “Beth El”
  • PALESTINIANS DEFEATED (ACTUALLY BACKED BY THE UN – GOD SAID HE WOULD DESTROY THE UN)

Bethel “house of God” 12  (12 is the perfect government of God) 12 miles from Jerusalem “open heaven”  GATE”  “STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN” 

Bethel is on the west bank of Israel – occupied by Palestinians (the UN) soon to be back to Israel through President Trump!  The west bank area was given by GOD to the tribe of Ephraim. Grandsons of Jacob  Modern Day (America) and Manasseh (Scotland)

Land allotment

According to Joshua 13–19, the Land of Israel was divided by lots into twelve sections corresponding to the twelve tribes of Israel. (Ephraim and Manessah sons of Joseph included “13th tribe”)  There is a contractual/covenantal aspect of the division of the land according to the tribes.

Tribal Allotments of Israel

BETHEL – HOUSE OF GOD – A PROMISE THAT BEGAN WITH ABRAHAM

Abraham made a altar to God there when he pitched his tent in Bethel

[biblical reference]

Genesis 12:8 “And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord.” [Genesis 12 full Chapter]

Jacob returned there to rest and sleep on the stone for a pillow (now the “Destiny Stone”)

(There would have been cut stones there from what Abraham made as an altar and was already named the city of Luz – builders stones that were scattered outside of the city would be common)

Jacob had a DREAM of stairway to heaven while camped on a hill in Bethel (same place as Abraham his grandfather made an altar 

Gifts and blessings being brought by angels of the Lord for coming generations!

Jacob became “Israel” – anointed the stone/pillow “DESTINY STONE”

Jacob went on to Laban’s and married Leah and then Rachel, having 12 sons that were given the inheritance and two grandsons (Ephraim and Manasseh)

Jacob then returned to Bethel and to that same stone/pillow and made it a ‘memorial pillar’ and anointed it. This would have been a stone from the altar that Abraham made there – a cut piece of stone because it has a crack in it and not able to be a builders stone (the stone the builder’s rejected) 

Psalm 118:22 Give Thanks to the LORD, for He is Good

21I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation. 22The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. 23This is from the LORD, and it is marvelous in our eyes…

Cross References

Matthew 21:42
Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?

Fast forward to the time of Joshua taking the Promised land back…

JOSHUA RETURNS TO BETH EL THE HOUSE OF GOD THE PLACE WHERE THE STONE WAS ANOINTED AND STOOD UP AS A PILLAR 

Years later Joshua is sent to Bethel, stood on a hill with a ‘tip of a  spear’ facing AI – 

[biblical reference]

Bethel overlooks the city of AI – AI is visible to the eye just west of Bethel

Ai, ancient Canaanite town destroyed by the Israelites under their leader Joshua (Joshua 7–8). Biblical references agree in locating Ai (Hebrew: ha-ʿAy, “The Ruin”) just east of Bethel, Near and East of an Ambush Site

Prior to the battle, Joshua positioned his troops at an ambush site “not…very far from the fortress” (Jos 8:4).

JOSHUA WAS STANDING ON THE HILL OF ABRAHAM’S ALTAR AND JACOB’S STONE! A PLACE OF AN OPEN HEAVEN – A SUPERNATURAL GATE – he could see the city from Ai from where he was standing!

https://bibleatlas.org/ai.htm

Israel had the victory at BETHEL! Overtook the city of AI and got all the plunder (west bank)

Did Joshua and the Israelites also take the DESTINY STONE of Jacob with them from Bethel? I believe so! It was carried along with the plunder from AI, and the true destiny stone today in Scotland has metal handles fashioned on it!

JOSHUA AND THE BATTLE OF AI (prophetic word) Trump has been given the same strategy!

Prophetic Word – Full Metal Jacket – Full Military Assault – Trump and The Good Guys 12/4/2020
By Annamarie Strawhand | December 4, 2020

TRANSCRIPT FROM DEC 4th 2020 PROPHETIC WORD Powerful Words from the Holy Spirit to expect in America: “Full Metal Jacket – Full Military” “Joshua and the Battle of AI” Watch for the “Good Guys”  TRANSCRIPT: READ https://www.annamariestrawhand.com/prophetic-word-full-metal-jacket-full-military-assault-trump-and-the-good-guys-12-4-2020/

Tip of the spear!  Taking the gates! 

Trump is the tip of the spear just like the Joshua of Moses!

WORD: I discern strongly that President Trump will stand in Bethel and Gaza and stand on the west bank – Taking the territory back for God and Israel 

Bethel is known for PROPHETS! 

Deborah judged and prophesied under an open heaven under a tree near Bethel 

Judges 4:5
“And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.”

Samuel went to judge all of Israel from Bethel!

Samuel 7:15-17
“Samuel continued as Israel’s judge for the rest of his life. Each year he traveled around, setting up his court first at Bethel, then at Gilgal, and then at Mizpah. He judged the people of Israel at each of these places. Then he would return to his home at Ramah, and he would hear cases there, too.” 

JESUS IS THE STONE AND THE STAIRWAY AND THE GATE!!! GAZA AND BETHEL ARE FOR PROPHETS AND EVANGELISTS OF THE LORD AND IT’S COMING BACK TO US RIGHT NOW!

JESUS IS THE STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN and TAKING DOMINION OF THE CITY GATES AND BORDERS

There will be revival there for millions in the Gaza-Bethel that is being taken back by TRUMP (a descendant of Jacob/Judah) for the plans and purposes of God!

Gaza has an open heaven!  Bethel (west bank) has an open heaven!

Philip and the Angel – Time Travel – Gaza (Open Heaven)  Jesus set the boundary in Gaza! It is supernaturally set for EVANGELISM and Angelic Activity, Time Travel Gates!

Acts 8:26-40 MSG
Later God’s angel spoke to Philip: “At noon today I want you to walk over to that desolate road that goes from Jerusalem down to Gaza.” He got up and went. He met an Ethiopian eunuch coming down the road. The eunuch had been on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem and was returning to Ethiopia, where he was minister in charge of all the finances of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. He was riding in a chariot and reading the prophet Isaiah. The Spirit told Philip, “Climb into the chariot.” Running up alongside, Philip heard the eunuch reading Isaiah and asked, “Do you understand what you’re reading?” He answered, “How can I without some help?” and invited Philip into the chariot with him. The passage he was reading was this: As a sheep led to slaughter, and quiet as a lamb being sheared, He was silent, saying nothing. He was mocked and put down, never got a fair trial. But who now can count his kin since he’s been taken from the earth? The eunuch said, “Tell me, who is the prophet talking about: himself or some other?” Philip grabbed his chance. Using this passage as his text, he preached Jesus to him. As they continued down the road, they came to a stream of water. The eunuch said, “Here’s water. Why can’t I be baptized?” He ordered the chariot to stop. They both went down to the water, and Philip baptized him on the spot. When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of God suddenly took Philip off, and that was the last the eunuch saw of him. But he didn’t mind. He had what he’d come for and went on down the road as happy as he could be. Philip showed up in Azotus and continued north, preaching the Message in all the villages along that route until he arrived at Caesarea.

America Is Ephraim – a Tribe of Israel

Where is America in Bible Prophecy? The Number 13 and The Tribe of Ephraim
By Annamarie Strawhand https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-SJhJol5KA

~ The Number “13” and the United States! We are lost Israel!

The incredible relationship between the 13th Tribe and the 13 Colonies that became America!

The Number “13” and the Identity of “Ephraim”! 

Is the United States of America mentioned directly in Bible Prophecy? Are we the descendants of the ancient tribe of Ephraim? The majority of investigators who have studied this question believe that the British people are Ephraim and that the United States is Manasseh, his brother. But what does the Biblical and historical evidence really tell us? Here is point-blank the most direct and indisputable evidence and salient PROOF that it is the United States who is really end-time Ephraim.
William F. Dankenbring

It is well known that the number “13” is the number of the United States of  America.  The United States began with 13 colonies.  The original U.S. flag had 13 stars,  representing the initial 13 states.  It also contained 13 stripes, 7 red and 6 white. The American seal also bears witness to the number 13 in its composition.

Over the breast of the eagle on the United States seal is a shield; the shield of  FAITH. It has thirteen stripes or bars, red and white, signifying the number 13; the  number of the original American colonies.

The number 13, of course, was the number of the tribes of ancient Israel, since  the tribe of Joseph became two tribes: Ephraim and Manasseh.  There were twelve tribes  of Israel, but Joseph had two sons and each of them became a tribe; hence, there were  thirteen tribes in all, with Ephraim, the youngest son, being number 13.

The U.S. shield contains 13 paleways or stripes which represent the 13 original colonies. The shield is not fastened to the eagle, but spread across in front of it, as if held there by the unseen Hand of God.

In the eagle’s beak there is a scroll, representing the proclamation of liberty and  freedom, and justice for all: the Constitution of the United States, based on the laws of God and the Torah which God gave to ancient Israel.

The motto “E Pluribus Unum” means “One from Many,” or “Out of many, One.” It represents UNITY; the FIFTY united States of America! This One nation combines the peoples and ethnic groups of many different nations and peoples from around the world: out of many, ONE. And if we remained faithful to the laws of God, this national UNITY would be preserved forever. But if we BREAK God’s laws, then the very unity we possess will become disunity and division – the “unity” will become a memory, a distant dream, forgotten in onrushing calamity and cataclysm.

America is a COMMONWEALTH of fifty states. At our national political conventions, members from each state rise to address the chair, saying, “Mr. Chairman, we the Commonwealth of Maine, or, The commonwealth of Massachusetts, etc., etc.  Notice further! In the eagle’s right claw is clutched an olive branch. This olive  branch has 13 leaves, and 13 olives.  There’s that number 13 again! In the Bible, the tribe of Joseph is compared in prophecy to a fruitful bough of an olive tree (Gen.49:22). In a parable in the book of Judges, we are told that the olive tree is supreme among trees. The first tree the other trees asked to reign over them was the olive tree (Judges 9:8). But the fruit of the olive honors God and man (v.9). It seeks not to reign but to bear fruit. It is a sacred tree, and a symbol of the Holy Spirit of God,
and of the Torah: the life-giving Law and Revelation of God. The olive branch is the greatest symbol also of Peace (Shalom). Since the olive tree is supreme among the trees (and the olive oil is symbolical of the powerful Holy Spirit of God), then the identification of the olive branch in the U.S. seal brands the United States as being the tribe of the Olive Branch; the leading tribe of Joseph!   Which tribe would that be?  Ephraim?  Or Manasseh?

The Bundle of Arrows

“Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough by a spring; his branches run over the wall.  The archers fiercely attacked; they shot at him, and pressed him hard.  Yet his bow remained taut, and his arms were made agile by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob, by the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel” (Gen.49:22-24).

Joseph: Ephraim and Manasseh; America and Britain, are famous therefore for their military prowess. Their bow is strong, they are powerful archers. The bow, today, is a symbol of AIR POWER. It was largely the U.S. and British air power that defeated the Axis during World War II; that devastated Saddam Hussein in the Gulf War; that wreaked havoc in Iraq during the Iraq War of “Shock and Awe.” The arrow is a symbol of war-making power and today’s guided missiles and attack from the air. The ancient Anglo-Saxons were excellent archers. Who hasn’t heard of Robin Hood and his merry men of Sherwood forest?

In the eagle’s left claw are 13 arrows. They symbolize national readiness and preparedness to fight and to safeguard the truth, the liberty, the freedoms which God has given us to enjoy. Thomas Jefferson, one of the founding fathers of America, said: “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” The arrows of the Almighty will protect His people so long as we obey Him; but woe unto us, if God Himself sends His arrows to punish us for our disobedience (Deut.32:23; Ezek.5:16).  The number 13 again is
connected with the United States of America!

On the Seal of the United States of America, there are also 13 letters in “E Pluribus Unum”.  Above the eagle’s head there are 13 stars.

Over the eagle’s head is a cloud or crest, a glorious scene of the Glory of God shining through and breaking up a cloud, shining upon 13 stars. The statute of endorsement stated, “A glory breaking through a cloud.” It was a pillar of fire and a cloud of the Presence of God that led ancient Israel out of Egypt (Exo.13:21-22; 14:24). The Divine Glory breaking through the cloud shows that it is the power and glory of God, shining upon Israel, that keeps her safe and makes her great, and gives her deliverance. So long as we acknowledge our God, and His Presence, and obey His Laws, our nations will be great. But if and when we forget God, then our punishment and doom is assured (Isaiah 1:1-21; Prov.1:22-32; Hosea 4:6-8).

The 13 stars in the cloud above the eagle represent two truths: 1) the number 13 reveals the 13 tribes of Israel, in total; and 2) the scene depicts 12 stars below (bowing down before) the highest star, the star of Joseph. This was in fulfillment of Joseph’s amazing dream, where he said, “Look I have had another dream:  the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me” (Gen.37:9; see also verses 10-11).

Observe more carefully the cloud which is above the head of the Eagle, with rays of the sun.  This cloud is reminiscent of the “pillar of cloud” that stayed over the Tabernacle, as the ancient Israelite’s journeyed through the wilderness for 40 years (Exo.13:21-22).  Says W. H. Bennett, in  “In the dry air of the Sinai wilderness and Western Arabia this cloud would be visible for many miles, and to a distant observer would indicate the presence of the Israel people. As such, the use of this cloud as an emblem today is an IMPORTANT MARK OF IDENTITY indicating that the nation which uses it is one of the Israel family of nations.  With this in mind let us note that this symbol holds an important place in the official heraldry of the United States, for there above the Eagle we see a circular cloud enclosing 13 Stars” (p.139, Symbols of Our Celto-Saxon Heritage, emphasis mine).

Bennett concludes, “Thus, by its official national emblem and by each item in it, the United States declares itself to be an Israel nation” (p.141).   Now look at the opposite side of the U.S. Seal.  Here again, on the obverse side of the U.S. Seal, there are 13 tiers of stone in the Great Pyramid! Why all this emphasis on the number 13?

Which Tribe Is “13th”?

Much ado has been made of the question, which tribe in ancient Israel really was the 13th tribe.  Bennett and British Israelites claim that “Manasseh” was the thirteenth tribe, and so they attempt to identify the United States with the tribe of Manasseh.  Bennett claims that since Joseph was the 11th tribe, followed by Benjamin, the 12th tribe, when Manasseh and Ephraim were born, Ephraim took the place of Joseph, becoming the 11th, and this left Manasseh with being the 13th tribe.

However, this is nothing but circular reasoning.  Rabbis point out that when Jacob thought that Joseph was dead, Benjamin became the eleventh tribe.  Then, later, when Jacob found that Joseph was still alive, and had two sons, he placed his name on them.  Manasseh therefore became the twelfth tribe, and Ephraim, the youngest son, became the thirteenth.  This seems very logical.  Since there were 12 tribes, but Joseph’s two sons took his place among the sons of Israel, this would move Benjamin up to the 11th tribe’s spot, and then Manasseh would be moved up to the 12th, and thus Ephraim, the youngest
of all the “sons of Israel”, would have logically and automatically become the 13th tribe!

“13” represents “fullness.”  What must be seen is that indeed the number 13, the number of the FULLNESS of Israel, is clearly associated with the United States.  That is beyond question!  The United States therefore represents the 13th tribe. Looking at it from a logical point of view, the 13th tribe would naturally be the YOUNGEST – THE LATEST to appear on the world scene.   In order of birth, Ephraim was the youngest son.

And likewise, the United States was the YOUNGEST NATION, of the nations of Israel, having been “born” much later than Great Britain.  English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish history traces far back into the mists of time, but the United States became a nation in 1783, at the Treaty of Paris, just a little over 200 years ago!

Interestingly, the very name Ephraim in Hebrew means “DOUBLE FRUIT” (see Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance).  This is a vital KEY to Ephraimís identity.  God names people what they are, or what they are to become! Ephraim, by the meaning of his very DOUBLY-FRUITFUL people, in every way imaginable!

The number 13 stands identified as the number of the United States of America.
