THE WEDDING RING AND THE SIGNET RING.

The wedding ring and the signet ring. 

     The Wedding ring of the bridegroom to His betrothed, His beloved,  His bride; becomes a signet ring on her finger. 

      The wedding ring symbolizes no beginning and no end. For there is no beginning or end to the deity and diadem of Christ.  A diadem is in simple terms a crown that is encrusted with jewels.  It looks similar to a Wedding ring. An unbroken band of gold.  
      A signet ring is similar in that it symbolizes the power of the one who wears it to release or seal edicts, rulings and laws.
     Ancient kings used signet rings to designate authority, honor, or ownership. A signet contained an emblem unique to the king. Official documents were sealed with a dollop of soft wax impressed with the king’s signet, usually kept on a ring on his finger. Such a seal certified the document as genuine, much like a notary public’s stamp today. 
ExampleRevelation 5:2  And I saw a mighty Angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?”  

     We know that the answer to that question is Jesus.  Rev.5:5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”


The Lord brought me to the book of  Haggai. To Zerubbabel.

      Zerubbabel is the governor of the rebuilt Jerusalem and is himself of royal blood, being a descendant of David. 

     In Haggai’s prophecy, God is giving Zerubbabel encouragement and hope. The governor is “chosen” for a unique and noble purpose. As God’s signet ring, Zerubbabel is given a place of honor and authority. God is reinstating the Davidic line and renewing His covenant with David. Judah still has a future as they look forward to the coming Son of David, the Messiah, who would one day “overturn royal thrones and shatter the power of the foreign kingdoms” Haggai 2:22.

MY SERVANT – MY SIGNET- MY SON:


     Zerubbabel is also called “my servant.” This title was often a Messianic reference in the Old Testament: 2 Samuel 3:181 Kings 11:34Isaiah 42:1-9;53:12Ezekiel 34:23-2437:24-25. The three represent;  servant, son, and signet ring, and creates a special combination of encouragement given to few in Scripture. Zerubbabel was an important leader involved in the reconstruction of the Jewish temple. As God’s “signet ring,” Zerubbabel becomes a picture of the future Messiah, Jesus Christ, who will establish His people in the Promised Land, construct an even grander temple (Zechariah 6:12-13), and lead the righteous in never-ending worship.

Psalm 49:9 Daughters of Kings are among your honored women; at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of [Ophir.] 1 kings 10:22.

     Jesus' true followers worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth. John 4:24 – because our innermost man, [our spirit] is eternal.  
We are His holy ambassadors. Called to release into the earth realm His Kingdom. 
     
Here is what I heard Him, who sits on the throne say to His beloved:

     Yes, I will bring my beloved bride her gifts of splendor at the wedding feast of the bridegroom!  For, on that day she will be as one Holy nation under her King.
I AM her King. Her eternal love.  And she shall worship me in spirit and in truth as I endow her with crowns of splendor and royal jewels of anointing, and rings of my Everlasting Kingdom, that have my mark upon them as a wedding ring and a signet, which is of her inheritance from my Everlasting  Kingdom which will never end and has been from everlasting to everlasting. 


FEAR NOT!

     Fear not, I have given you this authority even now! Have I not told you that you would trod upon the serpent and scorpion and not be harmed? Even so, your flesh is not seated with me yet. Your mind will and emotions are still in their carnal form. But I tell you the truth, that your Spirit is already seated with me in heaven. 

     So carry out my Kingdom in the here and now without fear of harm to your flesh. You are yet flesh and bone, but as I have already stated your spirit is eternal and is already seated in my courts. So pray with power in the spirit and command the gates of hell to be pushed back. Show my enemies your proof of inheritance.  My signet ring. My spirit has already marked you as mine. And my blood is the wax that holds my mark upon you.
Now go! Spread my kingdom.  For where my spirit is there is freedom.
Remember  I came to set the captives free! You have the same power in the Spirit of Truth! He is my deposit in you, that you are in Me.  You are My bride forever sealed for My kingdom and I have given you authority to set the captives free! What are you waiting for?
Freely I have given to you the keys of the Kingdom.  Freely give unto others this same hope!
Now Go!

Amen! HALLELUJAH!! Thank you Great and awesome God! You are great, and greatly to be praised!

With love for My King, In His Name and by His Royalty,

A Picture of the Bride of Christ. [Re-Sending.] I noticed that when I sent it the text was weird.

In the time we are living in, in a vision, I saw at the “gates” who the bridegroom is waiting for.  She is so lovely.  

She is pure and strong. She does not waste the strength of her anointing.
She forgets not justice, and makes time for those who are in need of her leadership. 
She is one who speaks up for the disenfranchised and pleads for the legal rights of the defenseless and the dying.
For she is TRUTH, Judging on behalf of the poor and interceding for those most in need. 
SHE IS THE SPIRIT OF THE BRIDE OF CHRIST!
She is the very spirit of the bride of Christ.  She embodies the attributes of justice, revelation, truth; searching out purity.
SHE BRINGS DIVINE SUPPLY.
She brings divine supply from the heavens even in the night seasons. 
She arises and sets food on the table for the hungry, in her house (the church), and for others on the streets of her city. 
She sets her heart upon a nation, and she takes it as her own, carrying it close to her, wherever she goes.
She labors in intercession and action to plant living vines, to extend the boundaries of His Holy nation.
SHE IS CLOTHED IN STRENGTH, MIGHT AND POWER, ( under the covering of her King's Royalty) in all her works.
She is LIBERTY; her shining light will never be extinguished,  no matter how dark the night.
LAY HOLD OF THE WHEELS OF GOVERNMENT.
 She lays hold of the wheels of government, by extravagant generosity to the poor; open hands to those in need.
SHE FEARS NOT! 
She fears not trouble nor tribulation.
Her household is covered by the dual garments of righteousness and grace.
Her husband, Jesus, is famous and admired by all, sitting as the venerable judge of His people.
She does works of righteousness even to the benefit of her enemies.  
BOLD POWER AND GLORIOUS MAJESTY ARE WRAPPED AROUND HER!
Bold power and glorious majesty are wrapped around her. She laughs with joy over the latter days.
Her teaching is filled with Godly wisdom and kindness,  as loving instruction pours from her lips, the things her husband has shared with her in their intimate moments.  She watches over her own household and meets every need.
HER SONS AND DAUGHTERS ARISE!
Her sons and daughters arise in one accord to extol her virtues.  And her husband, Jesus,  arises to speak of her in glowing terms.
YOU HAVE ASCENDED ABOVE THEM ALL! 
There are many valiant and noble ones but you have ascended above them all. 
But this virtuous woman known as JUSTICE lives in the wonder, awe and fear of the Holy One.
SHE  is the bride, and she will be praised throughout eternity at the right hand of her King. So give her the credit that is due , for she has become a radiant, spotless  woman, (justice)and all her loving works of righteousness deserve to be admired at the gateway's of every city.
 
DO NOT REMAIN SILENT AT THE GATES OF YOUR CITY! 
Pastors and clergy are those who oversee the bride of Christ.  They should not remain silent at the gates of their cities as justice is under siege. They should cry out as Mordicai!
  The church, as Esther, is being called to fast for her people, and stand before the ruling councils.  But She will reach out and touch the scepter of her King, Jesus, and He will hear her plea for her people. 
Even as the unjust authorities bring her up for trial, the King of kings has already made provision for his bride.  For she has been chosen to testify on behalf of her King. And she must be ready. She must be who her King recognizes her as.
Esther is a type of Proverbs 31 woman.
She arose to the destiny that she was ment for. So too shall the bride of Christ! 
Pastors and clergy should be preparing the bride for her moment of TRUTH. 
Esther 4:
12 When Esther’s words were reported to Mordecai, 13 he sent back this answer: “Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape. 14 For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”15 Then Esther sent this reply to Mordecai: 16 “Go, gather together all the Jews who are in Susa, and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my attendants will fast as you do. When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish.”
Mark 3:8 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.“You must be on your guard. You will be handed over to the local councils and flogged in the synagogues. On account of me you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. 11 Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.

Luke 20:19 The teachers of the law and the chief priests looked for a way to arrest him immediately, because they knew he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people. 20 Keeping a close watch on him, they sent spies, who pretended to be sincere. They hoped to catch Jesus in something he said, so that they might hand him over to the power and authority of the governor. 
With a watchful eye and a hopeful heart,
