Readers -
If you have read this:
http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/may2012/clay57-2.htm
then you'll know that today, as I write this is Wednesday May 9, 2012.
Due to the fact that the Lord Jesus is worthy of praise and does all things well - you might be blessed, (probably not as blessed as me) but still blessed by reading about the Lord's confirmation today of this day count, and the implications thereof. amen!
*****
Today concludes the 5,270 inclusive day count from December 5, 1997.
That start date was day number 339 in that non-leap year, 1997.
The link above also references this base conversion:
509 hexadecimal = 1289 decimal.
I've been writing for a few years about this 1289 number. This is the gematria total of the first four words of Isaiah 17:1, the famous verse about the upcoming destruction of Damascus. That gematria count ends on the fourth word DAMASCUS, it being the second time it occurs.

Here's the confirmation account -
Each morning I have a routine. Due to my back problems, I can get up and be up for a while, than I have to lie down and rest. During that time, I read my email devotionals, and do one other important thing -
Read my Voice of the Martyrs prayer request for that day, and prayer over it.
The country of prayer emphasis now is Indonesia. on an iPhone app, they show you how many people have prayed over that request today at the time you start up the app.
Today the number of people that had already prayed over that request when I opened the app was:
339
Thar really stunned me (!), and then I said out loud to the Lord, "There's Your confirmation". I have attached a jpeg of what my iPhone screen looked like at that exact time. notice the 339 number.
That wasn't all though, and the Lord Jesus outdid Himself. Eight hours later, I again looked at the screenshot I had taken, and noticed the exact time, recorded at the top of the screen -
11:54
I immediately went to the BibleWheel.com site and plugged 1154 into different slots to see if I saw anything I felt pertinent, and it didn't take long:
Strong's greek word # 1154g =
DAMASCUS
"Damaskos {dam-as-kos'} of Hebrew origin 01834;; n pr loc AV - Damascus 15; 15 Damascus = Vsilent is the sackcloth weaverV 1) one of the most ancient and most important cities of Syria lying in almost lovely and fertile plain at the eastern base of the Antilibanus"
Thank You Jesus!
Here are what I consider the implications of this confirmation:
1) 509 = 5.09 = May 9, IN THIS CASE.
This has been shown to be true in other cases like 911 = 9.11, 3.11 = 311,
11.23 = 1123, 12.05 = 1205 etc
2) Base conversions are used by God in a multitude of ways including tying dates, gematrias, strong's numbers, Bible verse placement numbers, and real time events data etc together.
3) Exact time of day equals Strong's numbers, AT LEAST IN THIS CASE.
11:54 a.m. = Strong's greek 1154.
4) Helps solidify that the 1289 number is related to Damascus.
5) the Day count seems tied to the upcoming Destruction of Damascus.
6) Day count from December 5, 1997 is trustworthy and 'may' still be continuing, though I don't know for how long, nor to what exact end. I theorize though, that the day count will end in the Resurrection/Catching Away, the revealing of the AC, and that Damascus will be destroyed per Isaiah 17:1 at the same time, which I have written about before.
I admit though, that at the time of this writing, I have no knowledge of a number higher than 5270. So, if the Lord wants some other higher number to surfac, He will reveal it also. Should He do so, I'll post it.
Disclaimer:
If some reader is out there is thinking that I have my emotions all up in an uproar over watching for this day count to culminate, and thus imagine this, that reader would be vastly mistaken.
Thanks for reading.
Glory to God, Jesus is Lord.
