Search for the meaning here,
Hidden within these words
‘tis a song that’s song of fallen tears,
Given way for two love birds
Love birds yet not of feathered creed
shot down for gambled play,
And caged a far distance betweenst themselves
for the hunter felt it best that way
“She bird is mine,” the hunter said.
“Twas this bird I raised and faithfully fed”
Twas he bird who released her from her cage,
sought her womb in youthful age
Love birds the name, these birds they call,
Two, plural, love birds, takes two
Twas not her womb of which he sought,
And certainly not her youth.
Love birds, the name these birds they call
Two, plural, love birds, takes two,
it’s just he needed she
to fly the skies of blue.
The poem goes into a further eight verses. Note the last lines of the third, fourth and fifth verses. Here David explains in simple terms the purpose of his involvement with these honourable women of our faith. In Ps. 68, it was prophesied concerning this. Note verse 13,
13 Though you have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove
covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
Notice where it speaks of him, “…lien among the pots…” This was not the lustful gratification it has been made out to be. Stop to think, does one really believe that these honourable women would all give themselves like this if there was not something more to it than lust? Those who would think so obviously cannot see past sex. Carnality has taken them over. You will recall the birthing of Christ into humanity 2,000 years ago. The virgin Mary graciously gave her womb over to the Holy Spirit to accomplish this divine purpose. What greater cause for a woman to give her body than the divine will! What she did played a significant role in the plan of salvation restoring man back to God and to life. A similar purpose was at work with David’s relations with these women of our faith. At the behest of God they were to bear babies, twenty four of them. This was in
continuation of the divine purpose begun 2,000 years ago. Part of the unseen and enduring infrastructure of truth and righteousness God has been establishing prior to setting up his kingdom here on earth. The Apostle Paul alludes to this in Romans 1:20, and Heb. 11:3, when he speaks of the invisible things of God.
You will recall our reference to Isaiah 53:10, where it was recorded concerning the one spoken of and “…he shall see his seed…” referring to his children. Also in Zech. 13:7, regarding the shepherd who is smitten, his sheep scattered, but God would turn his hand, “…upon the little ones.” We showed how these texts refer to Christ, but did not meet there fulfillment in the Christ event 2,000 years ago. They were to occur in the future, before his return in glory. We also noted the Christ figure that would arise through the lineage of Joseph, referred to in Gen. 49:24, as, “…the shepherd, the stone of Israel.” We showed further how this connected to what Christ spoke of in Mt. 24:28 as the “carcase” around which the eagles would be gathered. As the one chosen of heaven to reveal the book sealed with seven seals David Koresh would now bear the mantle of Christ. It would then become enjoined upon him to fulfill the remainder of the prophecies. His bearing babies through these women, was part of the mandate given him of God to set Judgment in the earth. These children serve an important role relating to the Judgment and the subsequent Messianic kingdom that is to be set up after the sixth seal. They are the ones shown as the 24 elders seated around the throne in Rev. 4:4. It was their spirits that were embodied in the children born to David. The idea behind all of this relates to something Christ said in the prayer he taught his disciples recorded in Mt. 6:9-13, note verse 10,
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
This statement echoed what God said in a conversation with Job much further back. Note Job 38:33,
33 Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? Canst thou set the dominion thereof in the
earth?
As far back then the issue regarding the establishment of the rule of heaven here on earth was already mentioned as the blueprint for how the earth is to be successfully governed. What was stated in Gen. 1:28, regarding man having dominion over the earth was not said in a vacuum leaving man to rule as he pleases? This involved a definite divine ideal. The scriptures reveal that there exists a true system and governance by which life on earth can be governed. The same as it is in heaven. You will recall when John went to heaven in Rev. 4ff. After the lamb had taken the book, all of heaven was shown in complete and spontaneous agreement. There was no discord. It is the will of God that rules in heaven, to the lasting joy and well-being of all who dwell there. If it is good enough for heaven what is the problem with it here on earth also!? You will notice too, there was no sign of the devil being present. He had already been cast out, sometime after Christ ascended to heaven following his resurrection. Note Rev. 12:9,
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were
cast out with him.
By his actions towards Christ through his instrumentalities among men the devil revealed his hand. This showed the sole motive for his rebellion in heaven was to usurp the throne of God. It had nothing to do with any unrighteousness in the rule of God, rather his own self interest. There remained no more a case to be made in support of his position or any sympathy towards him among those in heaven. But this did not lead him and the greater part of the angels that were with him to turn from their rebellion. Instead they would find somewhere else to set up shop. Here they are shown cast out of heaven to earth. In Rev. 12:12, it was written further,
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabitants of
of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath,
because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
This is the source of the problems of earth. Ever since his involvement in the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden the earth has known much grief and discord. So long as men refuse to come to the knowledge and truth of God as it is in heaven the devil is allowed to continue his mischief here. There is enormous power available to change the conditions of things here on earth. But this involves taking hold of the hand of God. We noted concerning Ps. 2; how the kings of the earth and the rulers take counsel against God and against his anointed. Who are they acting for? It certainly is not God. And arguably not the people of the world either. That leaves only two other possibilities, themselves and the devil. By the choices these leaders make they create these disturbing conditions the peoples of the world are made to live through. The people did not extend their trust, with the power this affords, to be used by them for their own selfish purposes or to serve the devil. The conditions of the world can be very different to what they are now. But the world is not being governed for this to be so. Rather than the lasting joy and well-being of the inhabitants of the earth it is about the power and privilege of the few who rule, reflecting the spirit of the devil in his discredited rebellion against God. But this is to be overruled. In these matters concerning David Koresh and the Judgment of God, the leaders of the world have also revealed their hand disclosing exactly who they are working for. There remains but a short time left before they are to be removed.
Is there a way besides through God that life on earth can consist? Not unless man is self-existent. It has already been demonstrated this is not so. Life on earth has a “cause” beyond earth. The fact that the earth depends on the sun for its energy is a constant reminder of this. But this is largely in relation to the needs of the body. What about the soul of man, his essential being? Without this the life of the body is but emptiness. How is this sustained in order that life continues as a thing of lasting joy and meaning? This is of a different source than the light of the sun. By revealing the seals here on earth what we are seeing is God extending his hand of friendship to mankind. This has to do with the life of the soul. Significantly no one needs to be lost, but by their own rejection of it. David’s part in this with the responsibilities this enjoined upon him was essentially what was being done at Mt. Carmel. This was not something he did out of his own mind and wishes. It was done under the auspices and guidance of the Word and Spirit of God. This was very real and of course challenging to us. Our part was to have the kind of faith that allowed it to take effect in and through us. We did. This provided us experiential confirmation it was indeed the truth from God. It was, and still is!
