| Depictions of Warrior Angels: Symbolic Of The 144,000! |
In 2008, I wrote a Ministry Blog article that zeroed in on the nature and ministry of the 144,000 witnesses that are described in the Book of Revelation, Chapter 7, verses 1 through 8 and Chapter 14, verses 1 through 7. You can find the title and link to it directly below this paragraph. I also wrote a follow up to this article in 2017 concerning the possibility that I might be one of the 144,000. Since then, the Holy Spirit has revealed many things to me about the 144,000 that I didn't fully understand at that time. So the purpose of this article is to explain what has been revealed to me since then, and there's quite a bit! But you might want to familiarize yourself with what God showed me previously first by reading my past articles on the subject of the 144,000 before reading this new article:

| Drawing: “WARRIOR PRINCESS”, Done by Helena Lehman at age 17 in 1975 |
The drawing above was featured in the second article posted above, and I felt it was appropriate to share it here due to the subject matter. It was one of my first spiritual depictions of warrior angels, which is what the 144,000 are going to be like. One of the things that I didn't understand when I drew that picture, but now know through special visions and words of knowledge that I've received over the past several years, is that the 144,000 will be extremely powerful resurrected immortal beings that have taken part in the First Resurrection. In addition, all of the 144,000 will be highly trained warriors that will command the warrior angels working with them to accomplish God's good and perfect Will. If that wasn't enough, they will not be working alone, but in groups of two with their perfect partner, and with a host of angelic warriors accompanying them and helping them in their work for the Lord. So it's interesting how I depicted the lady angelic warrior above with another female angelic warrior.
Another thing I was told while contemplating the majesty of Yahshua and His angels while in the Spirit is that the 144,000 will have special tasks to accomplish for the Lord, just as the holy angels that serve God do. By far their most important task during the Great Tribulation will be preaching the Gospel of Repentance that John the Baptist preached, and the Gospel of Salvation and the Gospel of the Kingdom that Yahshua and His Apostles preached to the Lost Sheep of Israel and all the Gentiles. The 144,000 will be preaching these Gospel messages to the people that will be left behind after the great Catching Away or Rapture of the saints to Heaven.
The 144,000 will quickly preach these Gospel messages all over the world because they will have the same supernatural Gift of Tongues that the Apostles received on the Pentecost or Shavuot that arrived 10 days after Yahshua's ascension into Heaven. This will allow their voices to be heard and perfectly understood among all the different people groups in every nation. As a result, no one will have missed hearing the truth that salvation can only be found by believing that Yahshua is the Messiah and the one and only begotten Son of God, and that only by sincerely repenting of our sins and accepting Yahshua's perfect Blood Sacrifice for sin can anyone be saved from paying the penalty for sin that He alone was fully qualified to pay because He never sinned. In this way, when they face the Judgment Seat of Yahshua, everyone will be without an excuse as to why they did not repent and accept the salvation Yahshua freely offers to all of us if we repent.

| Hebrew Name for Our Creator: the Preincarnate Yahshua! |
Another thing I was told about the 144,000 is that they will have a glorified angelic form that they will utilize in battle, as well as a more human-looking form that they will assume and utilize when preaching to the Lost all over the world. They will also be invisible to any type of tracking technology at all times, as well as to mortal human eyes when it's needed. They will also not suffer from hunger, weariness or exposure to extreme heat or cold. They will - for all intents and purposes - be invulnerable, and as such they will be invincible warriors. Also, while they are in their glorified forms, the 144,000 will be seen with the Tetragrammaton, or the four-letter Hebrew Name for the Creator God YHWH written on their foreheads (See Revelation 14:1). Fascinatingly, as shown in the image here, the symbolic meaning of the letters in the Tetragrammaton most commonly pronounced "Yahweh" reveal that Yahshua is the Creator, just as it says in Colossians 1, verses 13 through 18.
In addition to preaching God's Truth and fighting the wicked, the 144,000 will be on the Earth during the Great Tribulation in order to protect a small remnant of newly born again saints that come out of the Laodicean Church, which is representative of all the lukewarm or totally backslidden Christians that can be found around the world today. Thankfully, some of them will become born again after the Rapture. The 144,000 will also be here to protect a small remnant of Jewish believers from all over the world from the Antichrist and his henchmen, as well as the plagues connected to God's Wrath that will be destroying much of the surface of the Earth.
As I stated in my previous article about the 144,000, these immortal beings will come from the 12 Tribes of Israel as they are represented on the Earth today, which includes the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel. Thus, there will be 12,000 each from each of these modern 12 tribes that will be chosen by God from within the United States, the United Kingdom, the British Commonwealth Nations, and the European Union. These modern day Tribes of Israel have been re-identified in the Zodiacal Wheel of the Mazzaroth or Starry Witness of the Heavens that I recently created and posted below this paragraph, along with the link to the article which describes my reasons for creating this graphic.

| The 144,000 will represent every race |
Perhaps the most important thing that I need to stress about the 144,000 is that they will be from every nation, and of every race and color. Indeed, there are many Christians and Messianics of different races living within the United States, the United Kingdom and its Commonwealth, and the European Union that will be chosen by God to serve as one of the 144,000 Witnesses. As I explained in the article linked to above, the real people of Israel are all the born-again believers in Yahshua or Jesus around the world. Only those who are covered by the blood of the Lamb of God are considered to be Israel, because Israel is not a land designation or a name for the Jews, but the name of a massive multitude of people with a powerful Faith in Yahweh God like that of Abraham, whose Faith was punctuated by his love and trust in the Lord of Hosts!
Finally, and possibly unexpectedly for those who haven't given all of themselves and their lives over to the Lord's service, the 144,000 will know much about emotional turmoil, especially the physical and emotional suffering that dedicated saints have to undergo for the sake of the Kingdom of God. To emphasize what this suffering will be like, I want to share a true story that may not seem to relate to a discussion about the 144,000. But before I tell you how it does relate to them, I'd like to say that we as human beings tend to believe that everything happens by accident, and that nothing that seems random could possibly be orchestrated by God. But this is absolutely not true! The truth is that nothing happens by accident! Everything that happens on the face of this Earth is orchestrated by one spiritual power or another, and there are only two: the power of God, and the stolen power of the Devil.

| A Happy Mom Feeding Her Baby |
Now let me share this amazing story that shows how YHWH God can sometimes reveal the nature of a person even in infancy. There was a mom whom I know that gave birth to a little girl, and who loved her before she was even born. She was really excited about being a mom, and couldn't wait to hold her new baby in her arms. When that time finally arrived, she was in love at first sight with her daughter, and excited as she put her little girl to her breasts to nurse her for the first time. But something odd happened when she did that the first time, and every time after that. Her little girl would suck vigorously at first, but then would begin to get sleepy and she would fall asleep before she had received enough nourishment. Sadly, this led to her daughter becoming extremely thin before they realized that they needed to put her on baby formula to keep her alive.
Though the doctor's assessment didn't sit right with her, he said that not having enough milk was the problem, and it was a relatively common one. He also said that she shouldn't take it too hard because it didn't make her any less capable of being a mom in other respects. So though the lack of milk theory didn't sound right to her, and she really thought it had much more to do with her daughter's reluctance to suck hard (i.e. have to work) to get her nourishment, she did her best to be a good mom, and to raise her daughter with Christian values and a love for Yahshua. Little did she know at the time, however, how true her suspicions about her daughter's laziness at her breast truly was.
Later on, after her daughter was past adolescence, this mom went on to become a powerful online spiritual leader in the Church, and this required her to spend much more time alone working on written articles and creating graphics to express the things that God was showing her, as well as much time online using social media to share what she had been shown by God. In fact, it required her to spend on average 10 to 12 hours a day researching, writing, illustrating and sharing what the Spirit of God had shown her.
During a span of 8 years, this Spirit inspired lady wrote several books about what God had shown her, and they were finished when her daughter was in her early teens. But as she was working to get these books published, and doing her best to advertise their creation on her own, her daughter and her husband refused to support her efforts on a domestic level, or to help her proof read the rough manuscripts, both saying that they didn't understand what she was trying to say. In addition, her daughter resented having to help out around the house doing dishes and laundry occasionally, as did her husband. This godly woman was perplexed by this attitude and it worried her.

| Man quarreling with a sad woman |
But she didn't understand that her husband and daughter both housed deep resentment toward her, and they were both jealous of her relationship with God. This attitude was partly the fault of her husband, who told her to stop pretending to know anything spiritual, which he doubted, and to go out and get a real job. Tragically, she was continually being told that what she was doing for the Lord, and all of her passion and excitement for the Kingdom of God was utterly worthless! In fact, this man insulted her this way everyday! Needless to say, this non stop barrage of contempt was extremely dangerous to her health, especially since it was accompanied by a total withdrawal of sexual favors, and constantly being accused of being schizophrenic whenever she mentioned that she had received a Word from the Lord.
Despite this, this tortured woman continued to do her best to be kind and forgiving and loving towards her husband and daughter, and to continue to try to explain the premise of her books, the reason she was writing them, and her desire to do as Yahshua asked by keeping His Commandments. Nonetheless, her daughter and her husband were extremely unresponsive to her pleas, and very unsupportive of her efforts. They also didn't want to honor God with her by praying before meals or going to church on Sunday to worship the Lord with others of like mind. What's more, they continued to dishonor her by belittling her efforts, making fun of her behind her back and to her face, and they continued to say that they didn't understand her work. Despite this, she proceeded to proofread her books on her own and get them published with as few spelling errors as possible. Under the circumstances, however, her marriage and relationship with her daughter were permanently affected for the worse.
After the publication of her theological research books, the suffering just got worse. As her Spirit-inspired work became more well known, she also received much hatred and resistance from fellow believers, many of whom accused her of being demonically inspired, possessed, or an agent of the Devil - even though all of her writing was fully backed by scripture references and did not go against the basic tenants of the Christian and Messianic definitions of true faith. Sadly, the vicious emotional and physical toll this had on this lovely woman of God was tragic. It adversely affected her health because she wasn't seeking the Lord's protection from the demons inspiring this behavior in her husband and daughter, and many of the spiritually dark people she was obsessively and continually forced to contend with online.
Years later, after reaching a wider Christian and Messianic audience and gaining more widespread and hard earned acceptance and love within the Church, and from her own husband, this woman took some time off from active ministry to try to regain lost health. In the process, she had to deal with all the negative emotions she had experienced under persecution. To face her pain and wrestle it out of her life, she did much inner searching, digging through the wreckage of her past. She also spent much time fasting while in meditation and in prayer.
As she continued to do this, this lady grew much closer to Yahshua, and she finally began to give over the many hurts of her past to Him to help her overcome their negative affects. One night, she finally felt so loved and so comfortable in Yahshua's presence that she asked Him to reveal the reasons why her husband and daughter were so reluctant to draw near to Him through her efforts in the past, and why they refused to help her to proofread her books. Though she had strong suspicious that there was a demonic reason for this, she wasn't fully prepared to hear what the Lord said when He quickly replied to her inquiry with His still, quiet voice that she heard within her mind, and felt in her heart.
When He did speak, God gently but firmly affirmed that her husband was not only being inspired by demons to behave with such cruelty towards her, but he also did not have the spiritual knowledge needed to understand what she wrote, or the desire to expand his mind to appreciate what she was doing. And although the demons that had made him particularly cruel had been dealt with by an onslaught of fellow believers covering her and her husband with prayer, he still had a demonically inspired inability to care at all for her ministry. Furthermore, her daughter was not attuned to the desires and ways of God either. This is because her daughter was also being demonically inspired to continually run away from the deeper things of God. As a result, she was literally oblivious to every attempt that Yahshua made to develop a deeper and more personal relationship with her.
Then God said something that shocked this godly woman to her core. He said that the way her daughter had nursed at her breast was a sign of how she would behave toward her mother and toward God when she grew older. Indeed, despite the fact that Yahweh God wanted to feed her daughter and give her the best sustenance from His Spirit and His Word, this intelligent, pretty girl could not take much of it in before she would either run away or fall asleep and lose interest. In this way, her daughter's nursing behavior was a sign of the way her walk with God would sadly fail to develop. Before I go on, let me make it clear that this is not to say that all babies that seem reluctant to suckle at their mother's breast have a lazy spiritual nature. A baby could be reluctant to nurse because the mother's skin tastes too bitter, or her teats are too small, or the mother's breast milk is not tasty or too scanty. But God assured this woman that this was not the case.

| Scared Girl Running |
True to this day, her daughter is still lazy concerning the things of God, and she is constantly running away from God, and seeking Him in the wrong places. The same is true for this woman's husband, who still finds occasional reasons to dishonor her, and treat her with contempt - although the prayer efforts of this woman's friends and fellow saints have made this man much kinder to her than he once was - to her great relief and thanks. God also revealed why she had been brought to suffer so much. He said that it was allowed for the sake of His Kingdom. Because through that suffering, she was made more perfect for ministry and evangelism. Because of this, the Lord said that she would be able to do even greater things to advance God's Kingdom than she had been previously capable of.
This true story reflects the truth of Yahshua's words when He said that the members of a strong believer's own household would become one's enemies due to their lack of deep faith in or love for God (See Matthew 10:34-37). It also reflects the torturous path that every one of the 144000 will have had to endure in order to develop true humility, and to become more loving, long-suffering and compassionate towards the lost, and as such, more powerful Kingdom Warriors. In other words, the 144,000 will all be well acquainted with emotional pain and physical suffering for the sake of the Kingdom of God, just as their Messiah Yahshua was, and His Apostles were (See Luke 9:21-25; Mark 10:20-22; Romans 8:16-18).
This story also reflects the fact that - despite the best efforts of the average Spirit-filled Christian or Messianic to reach the people they are closest to and love the most, many will find their love and passion for God falling on deaf ears, and they will find themselves mostly alone in their faith, and the Holy Spirit will be their only faithful companion. Indeed, unless they work to keep the Holy Spirit as a faithful companion throughout life, many believers can feel very much alone, and this can lead to loneliness, despair and more suffering than is necessary for spiritual growth and maturity to occur. But the 144,000 will all know what this is like, and with Yahshua's loving help, they will all have learned to rise above it. Hallelu-Yah!
