<TITLE>13. Par 75-81</TITLE>L-75   And now, when Micaiah saw his vision, he knowed in his heart what the Word had said, but he wanted to see what the Spirit was in him would say.
So they told him, they said, "You say the same thing these other prophets say. And when you do, why, you'll be, we'll take you into the fellowship, no doubt, again. See? We'll make you one of us. We'll take you back into the denomination of us. You're... We know you're a prophet, but you're always saying cursing things. You're always cursing Ahab. Now, Zedekiah, the chief man, the pope, or the..." whatever he was. "Now he has blessed Ahab, and said, 'Go do it.' Now you say the same thing, Imlah. Why, you're just a poor guy. You ain't got no congregation, hardly, at all. And these guys has got millions. The whole nation is for them. Now you say the same as they do, see what you'll do, you'll--you eat the rich of the land." He's talking to the wrong man there!

L-76   What if it had been said, "Can you find any fault in Zedekiah, Micaiah?" "No." "Did you ever catch him in sin?" "Nope." "Did you ever hear him cuss anybody?" "Nope." "Did you ever catch him drunk?" "Nope." "Can you dispute his education?" "Nope." "Do you believe his doctor's degree is false?" "Nope." "You believe his--his Ph.D. is alright?"
"Sure. By the Sanhedrin council; I guess it's all council, I guess it's alright."
"Well, then, why don't you join with him?"
"Because he's off of the Word!"

L-77 Well, we'll have a showdown of it, then, like Elijah the prophet before that. And if you're a child of God, you'll stay with the prophet of this Bible. It's the Word. Notice the hour, the season.

L-78   Well, what if Zedekiah say, "Oh, I know the prophet said that, but that's for a future generation. That's for a long time from now"?
He said, "Wait till I see a vision from God, and then I'll tell you."
Said, "Then you say the same thing?
He said, "I'll say just what God says; nothing else, nothing more. I can't add one word to It, or take one Word from It."
So that night, in prayer, the Lord came to him in a vision. He went out the next morning, he said...
There is two prophets!

L-79   The greatest man in the nation, in the military and national sight, was Zedekiah. He was the head prophet, by the king. He was the head of all the other prophets, by organization. He was made, by his organization, the head of all of them; probably the best read, the best educated, more eligible for the job. And he was anointed with the Holy Spirit, for he's called a "prophet." Sure, not just an ordinary prophet, he was a Hebrew prophet. Now watch him.

L-80   Zedekiah said, "The Lord spoke to me, 'Make Me these two horns of iron,' a symbol." A prophet usually gives symbols. "He said, 'Make these horns of iron.' The Holy Spirit said to me, 'Take these,' the Anointing that blessed me." Don't think it as a sacrificial, but to get in a point. "The Holy Spirit that speaks in tongues through me, the One that's vindicated me, He said, 'Take these horns, and, by this, tell the king that he'll push Syria plumb out of the country. And I will give him back the land that rightly belongs to Israel, the church.'"
Brother, that's pretty fundamental, just about like Balaam was up here. Balaam was just as fundamentally speaking as Moses was. Moses... The correct number of God is seven. And Balaam said, "Build me seven altars; seven clean sacrifices, oxs, and seven rams." That's speaking of the coming of the Son of God. Fundamentally, he was just as right as any of them.

L-81   And here is Zedekiah, just as fundamentally right, "For this land belongs to us. Why, them Syrians and Philistines over there filling their bellies, of their children and so forth, our enemy, with the food that our children does without! When, God gave us this land!"
Brother, that's a good argument. I guess he could scream that out before Israel, and they could shout as hard as they could. Now, I'm talking about today now. I hope you're following me. All the screaming, hollering!
