THE 91ST PSALM

By Don Hollifield

The Books of Psalm, I believe have several prophesies throughout its verses. Moses gave the Israelites the first five books of the Bible, called the Torah. Likewise the Books of Psalm are divided into five major books.

These five books contain the following chapters:
1. Chapters 1 through 41, ending in, "Amen. Amen."
2. Chapters 42 through 72, ending in, "Amen. Amen."
3. Chapters 73 through 89, ending in, "Amen. Amen."
4. Chapters 90 through 106, ending in, "Amen. Hallelujah."
5. Chapters 107 through 150, ending in, "Hallelujah. Hallelujah," or "Praise God. Praise God."

Why do three books end with double, "Amen?" One book ends with "Amen" followed by, "Praise God," And the last book ends with double, "Praise God." Is it possible that at least some of the books, chapters, or verses prophesy periods of time? I definitely believe so!!!

Chapter 17 seems to prophesy the liberation of Jerusalem in 1917 by the British.

Chapters 42, 43 and 44 seem to prophesy the Holocaust, for the years 1942, 1943 and 1944.

Chapter 48 seems to prophesy the establishing of the new Israel in 1948.

Chapter 67 is full of blessings, which could indicate when the Israelites captured Jerusalem during the 6-day war 1967. Also, this chapter is only 7 verses long, which could indicate that on the 7th day, the Israelites entered Jerusalem.

Also chapter 93 seems to prophesy the great floods of 1993.

Is it possible that some of the chapters correspond to years? If so, are the books ending in "Amen. Amen," different than the books ending in, "Amen. Hallelujah," or "Hallelujah. Hallelujah."

I especially draw your attention to the 106th Book of Psalm ending in, "Amen. Hallelujah." Is God telling us that something monumental happen at the ending of the year 2006 or at the beginning of the year 2007?

As I have said before, "I believe God turned the key and started the End-Times in 1967 when Israelite captured Jerusalem during the 6 day war." This is also verified in "The Parable of the Fig Tree." Please notice that it is exactly 40 years from 1967 to 2007, and in spiritual numbers "40" represents a special period of time that ends with a new beginning or a change beginning in the following year or 2008.

Also, in Revelation13v18: Hear is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding, count (or calculate) the number of the beast, for it is the same as a man, and his number is six hundred threescore and six.

What exactly is God telling us??? Could the number 666 represent the 6th day war that occurred in June (6th month) and occurred during the 6th of June. Now add 40 years. Could the following year 2008, be the beginning of the tribulations?? Quite possible!!!

Also, the mega Alaskan quake hit on December 26th 1964. Notice that it is exactly 40 years later (to the exact day) that the Tsunami hit Indochina and surrounding countries.

These areas are 98% Islamic, Buddhism, or Hinduism. Also, they are believed to support the rebels that are causing so much trouble in the Philippians. But the fact that there is exactly to the day, 40 years between the Alaskan quake and the recent tsunami is amazing.

Coincidence??? I don't believe so!!! I believe God is warning us that there will be a new beginning of disasters, as never before experienced. Luke 21v11: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences, and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

Also, in Luke 21v25-26: And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon. And in the stars, and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring. v26: Men's hearts failing them for fear and for looking after these things which are on the earth.

Today we are going to examine Psalm 91, which I believe prophesies the United States in "Desert Storm" during the year 1991, as we protected Israel. We are the only country that has ever protected Israel. Psalm 91v1: He that dwelled in the secrete place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Who is God talking about, and what does He mean, "Dwells in the secrete place, and abides under His shadow? Israel has always been in the heart of God, Jeremiah 24v6: God says, For I will set my eyes upon them (the Israelites) for good, and I will bring them again to this land; (the Holy Land).

To keep them in His Shadow means that God will watch over them. And in 1948 Israel was reestablished as the Jewish people from all over the world rapidly relocated to Israel, and God's prophesy came true.

Psalm 91v2: I will say unto the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in Him will I trust." Who is God the refuge and fortress of? Israel constantly prays to God for their refuge and fortress and they trust Him. V3: Surely He shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. Who is the snare and fowler, and what is noise-some pestilent?

The fowler is Saddam Hussein and his snare is trying to trick the Israelites into open war; in hopes the other Arab Nations would come to his defense. Noisome pestilence are the disturbing germ warfare of the Iraqis. V4: He shall cover me with his feathers, and under his wings show thou trust. His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

What is God talking about ... feathers, wings, truth, shield and buckler? I believe this one of four different places and possibly others, that the United States is prophesied in the Bible, including the Book of Revelation. God covered Israel with the feathers and wings of the American Eagle. His truth or trustworthiness is sound, thus being the shield and buckler over Israel. V5: Thou shall not be afraid for the terror of the night, nor for the arrow that flieth by day. What is the terror, and arrows of day? You are safe during the night and the day from the scud missiles. Not a single Israelite was killed or injured by the scud missiles fired from Iraq.

V6: Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness, for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. What is the pestilence that walks at night, and destruction of noonday? Israel was protected from the germ warfare that Iraq used against its own people, day or night.

V7: A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at the right hand, but it shall not come nigh to thee. What does this mean? Iraq lost thousands, but Israel was safe. Kuwait is directly east of Israel, or the right hand of Israel.

V8: Only with thine eyes shall thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. What is the reward of the wicked? You shall see the total destruction of the Iraqi military.

V9: Because thou hast made the Lord which is my refuge, even the Most High thy habitation. What does this mean? Because the Lord is your shelter and the Most High is in your home.

V10: There shall no evil befall thee; Neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. Israel was safe from the evils of Iraq, including biological warfare, throughout their country and in their homes.

V11: For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee "IN ALL THY WAYS." The angels of the Lord were watching over Israel, and guiding the forces of the United States in all their actions. The military of Iraq was certainly delivered unto us. Our actions seemed to be controlled from above ... Amen. Please note that "IN ALL THY WAYS" was omitted by the devil when he tried to tempt Jesus by misquoting scripture. Why??? Was he trying to change prophesy??? Possible!!!

V12: They shall bear thee up in their hearts lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. V13: Thou shall tread upon the lion and the adder. The young lion and the dragon shalt trample under feet. God prophesies that we will be victorious. The young lion is Saddam Hussein. And we captured him trampled under the feet of our soldiers in a hole. The adder (or the serpent) and the dragon are the devil.

This is identified in: Revelation 12v9: And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the devil ... The dragon and the serpent are the devil. This specifically shows us that Satan was behind the terrible actions by Saddam and the Iraqis. V14: Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore, Will I deliver him. I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. Because we love God and obey Him, we will be blessed on high. V15: He shall call upon me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him.

98% of our men and women in uniform state that they believe in God. And before going into battle, there is always prayer. Chaplains are everywhere, as our military kneel and pray. Churches prayed for the safe deliverance of our troops, and their loved ones also prayed. We call upon God whenever our nation is in dire need of help, and God always answers our prayers. V16: (I will honor him) with long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation. (or blessings) With a full life or an abundant life will I give him, and God will watch over the United States. Have you ever seen a war, when the enemy was so thoroughly placed in the hands of a military force? And it took only 100 hours! No, not since the six day war when the Israelites crushed the Arabs and captured Jerusalem.

And look how God has blessed us! Since then we have become the world's greatest super power. Our economy became the greatest in history. And in history of the world, this is the first time a nation has come to the defense of Israel. God's promise of salvation, victory and prosperity lives with us this day and forever. Politicians can claim credit, but it was the Almighty that blessed us for coming to the defense of His chosen people, the Israelites.

Look how disasters have struck the world. While Some 100,000 Perished in the Indian Ocean as Christians Survived. Koenig's Eye View has received reports from around the disaster area where Christians were spared from the disaster and survived where thousands next to them perished. The initial quake was followed by at least a half-dozen powerful aftershocks, ranging in magnitude from almost 6 to 7.3. It was preceded by an 8.1 quake in the Antarctica. Before 1967 major earthquakes only occurred every 12 years. Major earthquakes have steadily increased since 1967. They are now occurring over 40 times in frequency, and steadily increasing.

The Biblical proportions of this disaster becomes clearly apparent upon reports of miraculous Christian survival while non-believers were less fortunate. Christian persecution in these countries are some of the worst in the world. Eight of these countries: Malaysia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Somalia, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia are among the top 50 nations who persecute Christians. Maldives, Myanmar and Indonesia rank among the top ten.

One pastor from India said that two churches where he was supposed to speak on Christmas and New Years were swept away in the ocean and thousands went with them, but the Pastor at one of the churches reported that not one Christian was harmed.

Another report from the disaster area described buildings that had collapsed under the immense pressure of the waves and the only survivors were Christians. Still another report came from a ministry who has pastors and Bible students throughout the coastline of Southern India. And not one Christian member of that ministry was injured, but our press does not report these blessings.

God said in Isaiah 43v1-2: "Fear not for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name. You are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you." As we enter into the fulfillment of the Biblical Prophecy of what Jesus called "The beginning of sorrows," there will be many more catastrophes. Man will stand at a crossroads. Man can continue to worship false gods, a blasphemy into eternal death, as he continues in his sins. "Homosexuality, Child Sacrifice, Adultery, Idolatry, Murder" to name a few, and receive judgment. Or he can turn his heart toward the true God and receive the gift of eternal life.

There are many men and women of God who sense in their spirits that the years ahead will see many, many Biblical prophecies fulfilled. They sense that there will be world changing events in epic proportions. The Indian Ocean could have been the beginning.

AMEN
