Good Evening!
I'd like to share with you some of the research that I have done on this Eclipse. I know. You are probably sick of hearing all about this eclipse right now, and as I am late to the party because of my short break from Steemit, I would still like to get in a word or two.
Mind you, this post is not trying to prove any points at all. I would simply like to present some facts that I found in my research, and give God the Glory for all the amazing stuff that He has done.
And Elohim said, "Let lights come to be in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and appointed times, and for days and years,
Berĕshith (Genesis) 1:14
Many believers have their own thoughts about this eclipse. Some say Jesus is coming back this year, some say this is the beginning of the end, and even more are skeptical and don't think the end times are near. There are so many different thought processes, but let's just take a step back and look at God's glory that he shows through not just this eclipse, but the one that will happen in 2024. 7 years from now.
Here's a little fact that I bet you didn't know. Salem, Oregon was named after Jerusalem. (JeruSALEM? Get it?) This year's eclipse passed through 7 different Salems in the united states. Salem Oregon, Salem Idaho, Salem Wyoming, Salem Nebraska, Salem Missouri, Salem Kentucky, and Salem South Carolina. The number 7 is known all throughout the Bible as a number of Creation, good fortune, blessing and more.
As many know this Eclipse started in Oregon and ended in South Carolina. What many don't know is that there is supposed to be another eclipse in 7 years. August 12, 2024. And it is supposed to stretch from Texas to Maine. This creates a picture for us where we see these two paths making a picture over the United States. This picture is the picture of an "X" with an intersection at Little Egypt, Illinois (by the way, Egypt in Scriptures is known to be a reference to the world). But here's a little more interesting fact. What else is there that looks very much like an "X" in hebrew culture? The letter Aleph "א".
א
According to Hebrew4Christians.com (where I have gone to do a small amount of research on the Hebrew Language) there is huge significance behind this letter. First this letter has the number "1" associated with it, but more interestingly some Hebrew literature tells a story of Aleph. It is constructed of one "vav" leaning backwards like a "\" with two "Yod's" acting as arms on the Vav. One reaching up to Heaven, and one reaching down to Earth. Furthermore, Aleph is known as the father of the "Aleph-Bet" (the Hebrew alphabet).How amazing is our God! Putting such an important sign over our country over the span of 7 YEARS! Thank you for reading this post. If you enjoyed it upvote it and please feel free to comment and start a discussion or ask questions.
Wow, that's interesting. And let me add something else that's interesting too.
The point of greatest eclipse this time was in Hopkinsville, Kentucky:

And Hopkinsville, KY, is in Christian County.

I posted about the eclipse the other day but forgot to mention that. I'm amazed by the "coincidence" that allows Earth to even have total eclipses:

An interesting thing that was pointed out to me about this eclipse is that it happened 40 days before You Kippur, also called the day of atonement or day of judgement. This is one of the 7 feasts of Yahweh given to his children. Many are saying the eclipse is a sign, that we have 40 days as a nation to repent and if we don't, judgement will come to the US. Chances are we will not repent and judgement will come. Maybe the eclipse in 7 years is signaling the end of the judgement. Who knows. Yahweh knows.
Personally... I think this eclipse marks the seven year period that starts the tribulation. And then the eclipse 7 years from now will Mark the end. And God taking us believes up to heaven.
That doesn't line up with scripture though. The start of the tribulation is marked by the signing of a treaty with many plus the scriptures tell us that if those days were not shortened not even the elect would survive, so we know it's less than 7 years.
It says that about the Great Tribulation. I'm marking a difference between the tribulation and the Great tribulation which will only be 3.5 years. the other 3.5 years will be years of peace. And I'm starting to hear rumors of Donald Trump starting to facilitate peace treaties with other nations. I'm not sure they are all true... I still have more research to do.
This is so interesting! I had heard about the X, but not about how it relates to the letter Aleph, which seems so clear now after you've pointed it out. I'm still praying and researching about what all of this signifies, but clearly the Lord is speaking plainly and openly for all who will see and hear.
I'm glad you were able to glean some truth from it. For the sake of your sanity, I wouldnt start looking at it as a sign of the end times unless in the very near future a peace treatie is actually signed among the nation's. If that is the case, then we will most likely enter in to 3.5 years of peace, and then 3.5 years of war.
Thanks for your very sane and sound analysis.
Thank you very much for this post I have already made a post regarding this eclipse and I am sorry that so many christians are in denial about the times that we live in; it seems that the Lord will have to do something radical to wake up the church, and I do believe some events will happen to jar the reluctant and the ones in denial
So many unbelievable things have happened in the past 10 years so that even if you don't believe we are in the end times, you should at least be in prayer and intercession for the world because we have serious problems in the country and in the world!
I am asking everyone to ask the Lord for guidance. ask Him to show you the truth, and then when you get your answer, please do not deny what He says to you and be willing to follow His lead as the world becomes darker and colder!
He already told us what the truth is.
Your righteousness is righteousness forever, And Your Torah is truth.
Tehillim (Psalms) 119:142 TS2009
God Bless You!
Walking in obedience to the Torah is how one is blessed of Yah. If it were not so he would not have spoke it.
See, I have set before you today life and good, and death and evil,” in that I am commanding you today to love יהוה your Elohim, to walk in His ways, and to guard His commands, and His laws, and His right-rulings. And you shall live and increase, and יהוה your Elohim shall bless you in the land which you go to possess.
Deḇarim (Deuteronomy) 30:15-16 TS2009
