Today I had a friend move into her new house on Memorial.  Her house number also being significant to me personally.

I also came upon a divine appointment with another person which seems to always happen if there is something significant happening.
The last time I had a vision of her was 111 days ago, and we crossed paths the following day.  It would also be the 7111 day since I was first married, and the 20th anniversary of when I first kissed the woman who used to be my wife.

So there were a lot of what seemed to be significant shadows being cast today when I found out about the shooting as well.

The Virginia Tech shooting took place on the same date that Tulsa was having a Night to Honor Israel on 4/13/2007.  

4/13/2007 to 12/6/2007 = 234 days.

234h = Memorial

Wow.

Since today is the 20th Anniversary of my first kiss with my ex, and since today seemed to have some heavy shadows (prophetic similes), I looked further.

12/6/1987 to 12/6/2007 = 7305 days.

7305th verse in the Bible is 1 Sam 4:7.

1Sa 4:7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore .

Later in the same chapter 1 Sam 4:18, Eli hears of the ark, he falls backward and breaks his neck and dies.  The daughter in law’s birth pains begin immediately and her son was named Ichabod because the glory departed from Israel.

Today, I was informed by prayer request that a guy from church stood up from his computer too fast, fainted, and fell head first into a wall causing a serious neck injury.  Very unusual accident.

Today, I was also informed that a man from the church I attended as a kid of about 100 members passed away.  His last name was Powers.

I don’t know, but John Hagee comes to mind since he was in Tulsa at the Night to Honor Israel.  He is also been the subject of recent rebuke of heresy because he claimed that Jesus was not the Jewish Messiah.  He came up again today on 5 Doves.

Perhaps he is also the subject of prophetic simile in which when Eli passed away, Samuel became the prophetic voice in Israel.  I am not declaring anything against John Hagee, because I don’t think that is the point.  I think the point is, if the church is bankrupt of the glory of God, I would expect to see God raising up Samuels to be a voice in the land.  Those who were once the “prophets” who were like Eli, will no longer have the voice in the land.

This is what seems to be happening.  One verse strikes me:

1Sa 3:19 ¶ And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.

Imagine the LORD watching over the words of Samuel and catching them before they hit the ground!!!   That is cool.  How many times have we said things, predicted things, etc. and our words fell flat on the ground???

Perhaps it isn’t a matter of us vs. Samuel.  It is a matter that Samuel walked with the knowledge that God was WITH him.  Immanuel is GOD WITH US.
